# Disallow identical titles (`no-identical-title`) Having identical titles for two different tests or test suites may create confusion. For example, when a test with the same title as another test in the same test suite fails, it is harder to know which one failed and thus harder to fix. ## Rule Details This rule looks at the title of every test and test suites. It will report when two test suites or two test cases at the same level of a test suite have the same title. The following patterns are considered warnings: ```js describe('foo', () => { it('should do bar', () => {}); it('should do bar', () => {}); // Has the same title as the previous test describe('baz', () => { // ... }); describe('baz', () => { // Has the same title as a previous test suite // ... }); }); ``` These patterns would not be considered warnings: ```js describe('foo', () => { it('should do foo', () => {}); it('should do bar', () => {}); // Has the same name as a parent test suite, which is fine describe('foo', () => { // Has the same name as a test in a parent test suite, which is fine it('should do foo', () => {}); it('should work', () => {}); }); describe('baz', () => { // Has the same title as a previous test suite // Has the same name as a test in a sibling test suite, which is fine it('should work', () => {}); }); }); ```
