Disallows non-null assertions using the ! postfix operator (no-non-null-assertion)

Rule Details

Using non-null assertions cancels the benefits of the strict null-checking mode.

Examples of incorrect code for this rule:

interface Foo {
    bar?: string;
}

const foo: Foo = getFoo();
const includesBaz: boolean = foo.bar!.includes("baz");

Examples of correct code for this rule:

interface Foo {
    bar?: string;
}

const foo: Foo = getFoo();
const includesBaz: boolean = foo.bar && foo.bar.includes("baz");

When Not To Use It

If you don't care about strict null-checking, then you will not need this rule.
