Examples

Invalid

class A {
    constructor() {
        super();
    }
}

  ✖ This class should not have a super() call. You should remove it.
  
    1 │ class A {

  > 3 │         super();
      │         ^^^^^

    5 │ }

class A extends undefined {
    constructor() {
        super();
    }
}

code-block.js:3:9 lint/correctness/noInvalidConstructorSuper ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

  ✖ This class calls super(), but the class extends from a non-constructor.
  
    1 │ class A extends undefined {
    2 │     constructor() {
  > 3 │         super();
      │         ^^^^^
    4 │     }
    5 │ }
  
  ℹ This is where the non-constructor is used.
  
  > 1 │ class A extends undefined {
      │                 ^^^^^^^^^
    2 │     constructor() {
    3 │         super();

Valid

export default class A extends B {
    constructor() {
        super();
    }
}

export class A {
    constructor() {}
}
