migrate-to-shoehorn

You can replace `as` type assertions in TypeScript tests with shoehorn-compatible helpers like `fromPartial` and `fromAny` to preserve type safety while using partial data. This migration focuses on essential object fields and updates test data with proper imports for clearer, safer tests.

Using `as` for partial mocks in TypeScript test suites bypasses type checking, creating maintenance issues when object structures change. Migrating to shoehorn-compatible helpers focuses type checks on essential fields, making tests safer and preventing invalid mock data from causing silent runtime failures.

Yes, you can use `fromPartial` to mock large request objects with only a subset of properties in TypeScript tests. It covers common test scenarios where partial data is acceptable, allowing you to focus on essential object fields while preserving type safety during test migrations.

The best way to migrate test files from type assertions to shoehorn helpers is by replacing `as` assertions with `fromPartial` or `fromAny` variants. This pattern-based migration requires adding proper imports and updating test data to maintain type safety for large payloads and mocks.

Yes, migrating tests with `fromPartial` and `fromAny` works for large payloads and mocks in TypeScript. This approach targets test scenarios where only a subset of object properties matter, ensuring partial data remains type-safe while modernizing test suites that heavily rely on large request objects.

You should not use shoehorn migration for partial data in TypeScript tests when a test scenario requires the complete object structure with all properties fully populated. The `fromPartial` and `fromAny` migration patterns are designed specifically for cases where partial data and a subset of properties are acceptable.
