Disable eslint rules for folder

Question

Is there a way to disable specific rules for a folder  For example  I don t want to have required JSDoc comments for all my test files in the test folder  Is there a way to do this

To ignore some folder from eslint rules we could create the file .eslintignore in root directory and add there the path to the folder we want omit (the same way as for .gitignore).

Here is the example from the ESLint docs on Ignoring Files and Directories:

# path/to/project/root/.eslintignore
# /node_modules/* and /bower_components/* in the project root are ignored by default

# Ignore built files except build/index.js
build/*
!build/index.js

The previous answers were in the right track  but the complete answer for this is going to Disabling rules only for a group of files  there you ll find the documentation needed to disable enable rules for certain folders  Because in some cases you don t want to ignore the whole thing  only disable certain rules   Example           env            extends            parser            plugins            rules            overrides                      files     test   spec js       Or   test js          rules                require-jsdoc    off                                settings
