Important

testifylint has breaking changes about enabling/disabling checks:

• If you were using the option enable with a filtered list of checks, you should either add disable-all: true (1) or use disable field (2).

Example (1)

  testifylint:
    disable-all: true
    enable:
      - bool-compare
      - compares
      - empty
      - error-is-as
      - error-nil
      - expected-actual
      - go-require
      - float-compare
      - len
      - nil-compare
      - require-error

- suite-dont-use-pkg

      - suite-extra-assert-call
      - suite-thelper
```

```yml

Example (2)

  testifylint:
    disable:
      - suite-dont-use-pkg
```
