### What it does

Require using `.only` and `.skip` over `f` and `x`.

### Why is this bad?

Jest allows you to choose how you want to define focused and skipped tests,
with multiple permutations for each:

* only & skip: it.only, test.only, describe.only, it.skip, test.skip, describe.skip.
* 'f' & 'x': fit, fdescribe, xit, xtest, xdescribe.

This rule enforces usages from the only & skip list.

### Examples

Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:

```javascript
fit("foo"); // invalid
fdescribe("foo"); // invalid
xit("foo"); // invalid
xtest("foo"); // invalid
xdescribe("foo"); // invalid
```

## How to use

## Version

This rule was added in v0.0.7.
