使用笑话来测试数据是否与TypeScript类型相对应时避免警告

Question

In the example below I want to verify that the data actually gives med a project with a property id .

test('getActiveProject => Project', async () => {
    let previouslyOpenProject = await client.getActiveProject()
    if (!previouslyOpenProject) {
        previouslyOpenProject = await client.createProject();
    }
    let project = await client.getActiveProject();
    expect(project.id).toBeGreaterThanOrEqual(1);
});

I get the following ts error message

[ts] Object is possibly 'null' (referring to project and the use of project.id)

What is a good course of action from here:

• Should I write my tests in js instead of ts?
• Should I find a testing framework with a TypeScript pre-processor that will allow me to use TypeScript types in test expectations? (I don't think this exists)
• Should these kinds of checks be made by some kind of json validation scheme instead of jest tests?

Answer 1

Result type fo getActiveProject is Project | null Project | null . If you are sure that let project is not null you can map it by let project = await client.getActiveProject() as Project; .

Also you can do something like this

let project = await client.getActiveProject(); // without type mapping
if (project !== null) {
  // here project will be Project type, not a Project | null
}
