Rule proposal: spaces between test blocks

[tswaters]

I tried to get some combination of existing rules from eslint to describe this style, but couldn't quite do it without adversely affecting the code inside the test block.

I propose a rule that affects expression statements with a name of one of the mocha test functions (describe, it, before/after/etc) and enforces spacing before and after the test with options for always or never.

Example of bad code with option 'always':

describe('some describe', () => {
  it('should really have spacing', () => {})
})

Example of bad code with option 'never':

describe('some describe', () => {

  it('shouldnt have spacing', () => {})

})

I have this written and was just going to include it in a custom plugin - but then I saw this project existed so I figured I'd share it.

Sounds like a good addition for this plugin 👍 .

Oh, rather thought about requiring spaces between each test case:

describe('some describe', () => {
  it('should really have spacing after this', () => {})
})

describe('some describe', () => {
  it('it had an empty line, good', () => {})
})

@lo1tuma we could consider closing this one as #340 seems to mostly address this.

[lo1tuma]

Agreed. Although the current rule only supports spacing between. But as I said if there is a demand for other options someone should file a dedicated feature request.

Hey all, does it not work with test('...', () => {})?
Does it only work with it?

Asking because we use Playwright, which prefers test.describe, test, etc.
