# Enforce valid titles (`valid-title`)
Checks that the title of Jest blocks are valid by ensuring that titles are:
- not empty,
- is a string,
- not prefixed with their block name,
- have no leading or trailing spaces
## Rule Details
**emptyTitle**
An empty title is not informative, and serves little purpose.
Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:
```js
describe('', () => {});
describe('foo', () => {
it('', () => {});
});
it('', () => {});
test('', () => {});
xdescribe('', () => {});
xit('', () => {});
xtest('', () => {});
```
Examples of **correct** code for this rule:
```js
describe('foo', () => {});
describe('foo', () => {
it('bar', () => {});
});
test('foo', () => {});
it('foo', () => {});
xdescribe('foo', () => {});
xit('foo', () => {});
xtest('foo', () => {});
```
**titleMustBeString**
Titles for test blocks should always be a string.
This is also applied to `describe` blocks by default, but can be turned off via
the `ignoreTypeOfDescribeName` option:
Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:
```js
it(123, () => {});
describe(String(/.+/), () => {});
describe(myFunction, () => {});
xdescribe(myFunction, () => {});
describe(6, function () {});
```
Examples of **correct** code for this rule:
```js
it('is a string', () => {});
test('is a string', () => {});
xtest('is a string', () => {});
describe('is a string', () => {});
describe.skip('is a string', () => {});
fdescribe('is a string', () => {});
```
Examples of **correct** code when `ignoreTypeOfDescribeName` is `true`:
```js
it('is a string', () => {});
test('is a string', () => {});
xtest('is a string', () => {});
describe('is a string', () => {});
describe.skip('is a string', () => {});
fdescribe('is a string', () => {});
describe(String(/.+/), () => {});
describe(myFunction, () => {});
xdescribe(myFunction, () => {});
describe(6, function () {});
```
**duplicatePrefix**
A `describe` / `test` block should not start with `duplicatePrefix`
Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule
```js
test('test foo', () => {});
it('it foo', () => {});
describe('foo', () => {
test('test bar', () => {});
});
describe('describe foo', () => {
test('bar', () => {});
});
```
Examples of **correct** code for this rule
```js
test('foo', () => {});
it('foo', () => {});
describe('foo', () => {
test('bar', () => {});
});
```
**accidentalSpace**
A `describe` / `test` block should not contain accidentalSpace
Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule
```js
test(' foo', () => {});
it(' foo', () => {});
describe('foo', () => {
test(' bar', () => {});
});
describe(' foo', () => {
test('bar', () => {});
});
describe('foo ', () => {
test('bar', () => {});
});
```
Examples of **correct** code for this rule
```js
test('foo', () => {});
it('foo', () => {});
describe('foo', () => {
test('bar', () => {});
});
```
## Options
```ts
interface Options {
ignoreTypeOfDescribeName?: boolean;
disallowedWords?: string[];
mustNotMatch?: Partial<Record<'describe' | 'test' | 'it', string>> | string;
mustMatch?: Partial<Record<'describe' | 'test' | 'it', string>> | string;
}
```
#### `ignoreTypeOfDescribeName`
Default: `false`
When enabled, the type of the first argument to `describe` blocks won't be
checked.
#### `disallowedWords`
Default: `[]`
A string array of words that are not allowed to be used in test titles. Matching
is not case-sensitive, and looks for complete words:
Examples of **incorrect** code when using `disallowedWords`:
```js
// with disallowedWords: ['correct', 'all', 'every', 'properly']
describe('the correct way to do things', () => {});
it('has ALL the things', () => {});
xdescribe('every single one of them', () => {});
test(`that the value is set properly`, () => {});
```
Examples of **correct** code when using `disallowedWords`:
```js
// with disallowedWords: ['correct', 'all', 'every', 'properly']
it('correctly sets the value', () => {});
test('that everything is as it should be', () => {});
describe('the proper way to handle things', () => {});
```
#### `mustMatch` & `mustNotMatch`
Defaults: `{}`
Allows enforcing that titles must match or must not match a given Regular
Expression, with an optional message. An object can be provided to apply
different Regular Expressions (with optional messages) to specific Jest test
function groups (`describe`, `test`, and `it`).
Examples of **incorrect** code when using `mustMatch`:
```js
// with mustMatch: '^that'
describe('the correct way to do things', () => {});
fit('this there!', () => {});
// with mustMatch: { test: '^that' }
describe('the tests that will be run', () => {});
test('the stuff works', () => {});
xtest('errors that are thrown have messages', () => {});
```
Examples of **correct** code when using `mustMatch`:
```js
// with mustMatch: '^that'
describe('that thing that needs to be done', () => {});
fit('that this there!', () => {});
// with mustMatch: { test: '^that' }
describe('the tests that will be run', () => {});
test('that the stuff works', () => {});
xtest('that errors that thrown have messages', () => {});
```
Optionally you can provide a custom message to show for a particular matcher by
using a tuple at any level where you can provide a matcher:
```js
const prefixes = ['when', 'with', 'without', 'if', 'unless', 'for'];
const prefixesList = prefixes.join(' - \n');
module.exports = {
rules: {
'jest/valid-title': [
'error',
{
mustNotMatch: ['\\.$', 'Titles should not end with a full-stop'],
mustMatch: {
describe: [
new RegExp(`^(?:[A-Z]|\\b(${prefixes.join('|')})\\b`, 'u').source,
`Describe titles should either start with a capital letter or one of the following prefixes: ${prefixesList}`,
],
test: [/[^A-Z]/u.source],
it: /[^A-Z]/u.source,
},
},
],
},
};
```
