Could we have this feature?

Angular’s test files end in .spec.ts

I want to use let in those files, as it is common practice to do so

A typical test looks like:

describe('CloseButtonComponent', () => {
    let component: CloseButtonComponent;
    let fixture: ComponentFixture<CloseButtonComponent>;

    beforeEach(async(() => {
        TestBed.configureTestingModule({
            declarations: [CloseButtonComponent],
            providers: [
                {
                    provide: Store,
                    useValue: {
                        select: () => Observable.empty(),
                    },
                },
            ],
        }).compileComponents();
    }));

    beforeEach(() => {
        fixture = TestBed.createComponent(CloseButtonComponent);
        component = fixture.componentInstance;
        fixture.detectChanges();
    });

    it('should create', () => {
        expect(component).toBeTruthy();
    });
});

There might be another solution too. IIRC the tslint CLI command will look upwards in the directory hierarchy for tslint.json for every file it lints. So if you have your .spec.ts in a test directory you can put a separate tslint.json in that directory. Then tslint will use it for the test directory, while you can have anohter tslint.json at the root level for everything else. That way you only have to run tslint once but can still have different set of rules for the test directory.

I want linting for the .spec.ts files, I just want to disable no-let for .spec.ts files
