jest/no-test-return-statement Style

What it does

Disallow explicitly returning from tests.

Why is this bad?

Tests in Jest should be void and not return values. If you are returning Promises then you should update the test to use async/await.

Example

javascript
test("one", () => {
  return expect(1).toBe(1);
});

How to use

To enable this rule in the CLI or using the config file, you can use:

bash
oxlint --deny jest/no-test-return-statement --jest-plugin
json
{
  "plugins": ["jest"],
  "rules": {
    "jest/no-test-return-statement": "error"
  }
}
