Avoid using expect().resolves (no-expect-resolves)

Deprecated

This rule has been deprecated in favor of no-restricted-matchers with the following config:

{
  "rules": {
    "jest/no-restricted-matchers": [
      "error",
      { "resolves": "Use `expect(await promise)` instead." }
    ]
  }
}

---

Jest allows you to test a promise resolve value using await expect().resolves. For consistency and readability this rule bans expect().resolves in favor of expect(await promise).
