# Require test cases and hooks to be inside a `describe` block (`require-top-level-describe`)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Jest allows you to organise your test files the way you want it. However, the
|
||
|
more your codebase grows, the more it becomes hard to navigate in your test
|
||
|
files. This rule makes sure you provide at least a top-level `describe` block in
|
||
|
your test file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Rule Details
|
||
|
|
||
|
This rule triggers a warning if a test case (`test` and `it`) or a hook
|
||
|
(`beforeAll`, `beforeEach`, `afterEach`, `afterAll`) is not located in a
|
||
|
top-level `describe` block.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following patterns are considered warnings:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
// Above a describe block
|
||
|
test('my test', () => {});
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {
|
||
|
it('test', () => {});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Below a describe block
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {});
|
||
|
test('my test', () => {});
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Same for hooks
|
||
|
beforeAll('my beforeAll', () => {});
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {});
|
||
|
afterEach('my afterEach', () => {});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The following patterns are **not** considered warnings:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
// In a describe block
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {
|
||
|
test('my test', () => {});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
|
||
|
// In a nested describe block
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {
|
||
|
test('my test', () => {});
|
||
|
describe('another test suite', () => {
|
||
|
test('my other test', () => {});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can also enforce a limit on the number of describes allowed at the top-level
|
||
|
using the `maxNumberOfTopLevelDescribes` option:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"jest/require-top-level-describe": [
|
||
|
"error",
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"maxNumberOfTopLevelDescribes": 2
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Examples of **incorrect** code with the above config:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {
|
||
|
it('test', () => {});
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {});
|
||
|
|
||
|
describe('test suite', () => {});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This option defaults to `Infinity`, allowing any number of top-level describes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## When Not To Use It
|
||
|
|
||
|
Don't use this rule on non-jest test files.
