Pull request overview
This PR fixes a false positive in the jsx-a11y/img-redundant-alt linter rule where substring matches incorrectly flagged words like "helloImage" as containing the redundant word "image". The fix implements proper whole-word matching by checking word boundaries on both sides of matched words.
Changes:
- Introduced
is_word_boundaryhelper function to check if a match is surrounded by non-alphanumeric characters - Refactored
is_redundant_alt_textto usematch_indicesand validate word boundaries for each match - Added test case for "helloImage" to verify camelCase identifiers are not flagged
- Enabled previously commented-out test case for "photo." to verify punctuation handling
