Diagnostic Category: lint/complexity/noUselessTernary

JavaScript (and super languages)

Since: v1.5.0

Sources:

Same as: no-unneeded-ternary

Disallow ternary operators when simpler alternatives exist.

It’s a common mistake in JavaScript to use a conditional expression to select between two boolean values instead of using the logical NOT (!) or double NOT (!!) to convert the test to a boolean.

Examples

Invalid

var a = x ? true : true;
