Type Check Before Tests |
HIGH |
Type errors are often the root cause of test failures |
ci, typescript, type-check, workflow |
When working on the Cal.com repository, prioritize fixing type issues before addressing failing tests.
- Run
yarn type-check:ci --forcefirst - Fix all TypeScript errors
- Then run tests with
TZ=UTC yarn test
Type errors are often the root cause of test failures. Fixing types first:
- Eliminates cascading failures
- Ensures code compiles correctly
- Catches issues that tests might miss
Compare type check results between the main branch and your feature branch to confirm whether you've introduced new type errors:
# On your branch
yarn type-check:ci --force 2>&1 | tee /tmp/feature-types.log
# On main
git checkout main
yarn type-check:ci --force 2>&1 | tee /tmp/main-types.log
# Compare
diff /tmp/main-types.log /tmp/feature-types.logIf you encounter errors related to missing enum values (like CreationSource.WEBAPP), running yarn prisma generate will typically resolve these issues by regenerating the TypeScript types from the schema.
