Explanation of Change

This test-only cleanup removes unsafe type assertions from the ten authorized issue 94739 test files while preserving production-derived types, mock signatures, fixture meaning, and runtime behavior.

Fixed Issues

$ #94739
PROPOSAL: #94739 (comment)

Tests

  1. Ran the deterministic focused formatter, lint, and Jest verification for all ten authorized test files.
  2. Verified zero cleanup counts for each target, changed-path restrictions, generated-file restoration, and git diff --check.

This is a test-only type-safety cleanup. Manual app, offline, staging, platform, high-traffic, console, screenshot, and UI checks are N/A because no runtime application behavior changed. No new feature or bug fix was introduced. CSS, assets, markdown, generic-component, Storybook, deeplink, and post-merge scenarios are also N/A.

Count change

Current baseline source: config/eslint/eslint.seatbelt.tsv at base 2c95456c78d65e54730dcde1f758292472ab59fa, rule @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-type-assertion.

Before:

  • tests/actions/IOU/PerDiemTest.ts: 6
  • tests/actions/IOUTest/PayMoneyRequestTest.ts: 6
  • tests/actions/MergeTransactionTest.ts: 6
  • tests/actions/connections/NetSuite.ts: 6
  • tests/ui/ParentNavigationSubtitleTest.tsx: 6
  • tests/unit/Search/SearchQueryUtilsTest.ts: 7
  • tests/unit/TransactionPreviewUtils.test.ts: 7
  • tests/unit/TryNewDotUtilsTest.ts: 7
  • tests/unit/WorkflowUtilsTest.ts: 7
  • tests/unit/submitDismissStrategiesTest.ts: 7

After:

  • tests/actions/IOU/PerDiemTest.ts: 0
  • tests/actions/IOUTest/PayMoneyRequestTest.ts: 0
  • tests/actions/MergeTransactionTest.ts: 0
  • tests/actions/connections/NetSuite.ts: 0
  • tests/ui/ParentNavigationSubtitleTest.tsx: 0
  • tests/unit/Search/SearchQueryUtilsTest.ts: 0
  • tests/unit/TransactionPreviewUtils.test.ts: 0
  • tests/unit/TryNewDotUtilsTest.ts: 0
  • tests/unit/WorkflowUtilsTest.ts: 0
  • tests/unit/submitDismissStrategiesTest.ts: 0

Net reduction:

  • 65 @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-type-assertion findings, from 65 to 0.

TSV evidence:

  • The base inventory records the before counts above; focused verification restored the inventory byte-for-byte and recorded zero cleanup findings for all ten targets.

Offline tests

N/A — this is a test-only type-safety cleanup with no offline runtime behavior.

QA Steps

N/A — the title is prefixed [No QA] because this test-only cleanup has no staging or production behavior to validate.

PR Author Checklist

All checklist items were considered. Items unrelated to test-only type-safety cleanup are checked as N/A based on the evidence in the Tests, Offline tests, and QA Steps sections.

  • I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
  • I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
    • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
    • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
    • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
    • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
    • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
    • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
  • I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
  • I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
    • Android: Native
    • Android: mWeb Chrome
    • iOS: Native
    • iOS: mWeb Safari
    • MacOS: Chrome / Safari
  • I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
  • I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
    • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
    • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
    • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
  • If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
  • I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
  • I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
  • If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
    • A similar style doesn't already exist
    • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG))
  • If new assets were added or existing ones were modified, I verified that:
    • The assets are optimized and compressed (for SVG files, run npm run compress-svg)
    • The assets load correctly across all supported platforms.
  • If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
  • If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
  • If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
  • If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
  • If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
    • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
    • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
  • I added unit tests for any new feature or bug fix in this PR to help automatically prevent regressions in this user flow.
  • If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.

Screenshots/Videos

N/A — no runtime or UI behavior changed, so screenshots and videos do not apply.

🟡 TransactionPreviewUtils.test.ts: @ts-expect-error on the call line is broad

Because functionArgs is an untyped local, the type error only surfaces at the call, so the directive has to sit here. The tradeoff: @ts-expect-error suppresses every type error on that line, not just the intended missing-amount one. If functionArgs later drifts and gains an unrelated mismatch, it'll be silently absorbed and the test could pass for the wrong reason.

Not worth blocking, but if you want it tight, annotate functionArgs with the real arg type so the expected error is scoped to the transaction property.

Same applies belon on the errors: {a: 404, ...} case line, though that one is already narrowed to the single property ✅

🟢 PerDiemTest.ts: two blocks still use raw as while siblings were migrated

Lines 603-604 and 692-693 keep:

transactionParams: mockTransactionParams as PerDiemExpenseTransactionParams,
participantParams: mockParticipantParams as RequestMoneyParticipantParams,

The mocks these point at (mockTransactionParams at 582/667) are untyped incomplete literals, so satisfies would fail here, which is presumably why they were left.

But createMock<PerDiemExpenseTransactionParams>({...}) accepts the partial and still type-checks it, so it's the consistent replacement and matches what you did in the sibling cases in the same file.

Since these as casts aren't caught by the seatbelt rule they're technically in scope-compliant, but leaving two of the same pattern un-migrated reads as an oversight.


const opts = jest.mocked(Navigation.revealRouteBeforeDismissingModal).mock.calls.at(0)?.at(1) as {afterTransition: () => void} | undefined;
opts?.afterTransition();
const opts = jest.spyOn(Navigation, 'revealRouteBeforeDismissingModal').mock.calls.at(0)?.[1];

🟢 submitDismissStrategiesTest.ts: mixed .mock.calls access styles

The cast removal here really comes from switching .at(N) (which unions all tuple element types) to precise ?.[N] bracket indexing. But you also flipped the accessor from jest.mocked(...) to jest.spyOn(Navigation, 'revealRouteBeforeDismissingModal').mock.calls... for two cases, while dismissModal at lines 76/214 stays on jest.mocked(...).

jest.mocked(Navigation.revealRouteBeforeDismissingModal).mock.calls.at(0)?.[1] should give the same precise typing without installing a spy, and would keep all the .mock.calls reads in this file on one idiom.

Using spyOn purely as a read-accessor is slightly misleading about intent. Worth a quick check — if jest.mocked types cleanly there, prefer it for consistency.

Minor related note: jest.spyOn(API, 'write') in MergeTransactionTest and the spyOn calls here have no restoreAllMocks/afterEach restore. They call through so behavior is preserved, but the spies persist on the real singletons across the file. beforeEach's jest.clearAllMocks() clears history but doesn't uninstall.

Fine as-is since each spy is read once, just flagging it.
