Feature: ignore next 3

[TheJaredWilcurt]

Vitest 4 switched to be compatible with nyc's ignore options, which means all of my ignores that specify a number of lines are broken now.

I will have code like this:

// Element visibility would require an E2E test to actually validate.
// Any unit testing of this function would just be theater.
/* v8 ignore next 118 */
/**
 * Checks if an element is fully visible on the screen.
 * This works with overflow: hidden values.
 *
 * @param  {object}  element  A native HTML element
 * @return {boolean}          True = 100% visible, false = <100% visible
 */
export const elementIsVisible = function (element) {
  // ...102 lines of logic
};

Having to add /* v8 ignore next */ hundreds of times is too tedious and annoying to accept as a solution.

The previous solution ignore next # is the cleanest option, a single hint is all that's needed.

However a ignore start and ignore stop would also be fine, especially for code where the amount of lines may fluctuate often.

This package does not implement ignore hints. They are defined in

https://github.com/istanbuljs/istanbuljs/blob/28ffdbc314596bdcb3007e85d30a62372602b262/packages/istanbul-lib-instrument/src/visitor.js#L7-L10

For Vitest usage you might be looking for

Also in your case you could just do ignore next to ignore whole node:

/* v8 ignore next */
export const elementIsVisible = function (element) {
  // ...102 lines of logic
};
