Use Case

As a node engineer
I want the tests directory to be type checked in CI
So that we can rely on typescript issues across all our own usages of our API

User (driver engineer) Impact

• Type checking tests helps read them, and call out intentional misuse of APIs (for failure tests)
• Auto completion of our own APIs helps with onboarding
• Increases coverage of our types, if tests have to use the API correctly changes to types will alert us if we use that API in a test

Dependencies

• Typescript

Unknowns

• None

Acceptance Criteria

Implementation Requirements

• Move the current tsconfig.json to tsconfig.src.json
• Add a new tsconfig.json that includes the test directory
  • Add the noEmit flag to the compilerOptions
  • Add the allowJs to check files that haven't been converted to TS
• Update our prepare and build scripts to build with the "production" tsconfig.src.json
  • make sure npm "files" ships the production config
• Correct type errors or reduce strictness as needed, file follow ups to address issues

Testing Requirements

• Add a new lint task that runs type checking on the tests files
• Add a separate lint task that ensures tsconfig.src.json continues to build the driver source correctly

Documentation Requirements

• None

Follow Up Requirements

• Type issue fixes, further test to ts conversions
