What are you trying to achieve or the steps to reproduce ?

When you set a field as a timestamp it is accepting an empty string as a valid value.

    Joi.assert('', Joi.date().timestamp().required());

Which result you had ?

No error thrown.

What did you expect ?

Should throw an error as '' is not a valid timestamp
