Hey,

I ran into a small issue. codecov is flagging line of code that is not covered by tests:

function createPropertyKeyFixer(node: TSESTree.Node) {
  return (fixer: TSESLint.RuleFixer) => {
    if (node.parent && node.parent.type === AST_NODE_TYPES.TSTypeOperator) {
      return fixer.replaceText(node.parent, 'PropertyKey');
    }
    return fixer.replaceText(node, 'unknown'); // ← This line isn't covered
  };
}

It is fallback that should never actually run I only call this function when we've already checked that the node has a parent that іs a keyof operator.

what is the best way to handle this?

  • Just add ignore comment to make Codecov happy?not sure 😐
  • Delete fallback?
  • Try to somehow test this edge case (though that seems tricky)

Any thoughts on what is usually preferred for these kinds of situations? Thanks!

Great question! We've been hoping to write a blog post on the subject: #10388.

Roughly, it's either of the following:

  • The code truly can never be hit, so it should be removed
  • The code can actually be hit, so test coverage should be added

If the type checker is pressuring you to write code that you don't think is necessary (e.g. the node.parent checks) then you can either:

Thanks again for the comment you left it had a lot of great insights, and I especially enjoyed your article.

So, I pushed a commit with my solution.

Of course, its not the best one out there, but following your article, I intentionally picked the worst and most unsafe approach 🙃. That said, the situation isn't as simple as it seems, so I will try to explain it in words maybe someone will find it helpful in the future.

Using type assertion just to bypass type checking is generally a bad idea. Without solid test coverage, this approach can go wrong fast, and other node types might end up being handled incorrectly.

in this particular case, I came to the following conclusions:

  • Since we have a check inside isNodeWithinKeyofAny that guarantees node.parent exists and is of type TSTypeOperator with operator === 'keyof',
  • and createPropertyKeyFixer is only called after that check,
  • the previous version of createPropertyKeyFixer had an extra check for something that was already verified.

according to @JoshuaKGoldberg article, in this case, type assertion actually is the best strategy, because:

  • the check is indeed redundant (yikes),
  • and we know for sure that the type is correct (so we are not really bypassing the type system).

Thanks for keeping working on this - I think you're in the right track with the removing a runtime check. 👍
