Summary

The fuzzer, extended to run the minifier on ESTree input (parse.spidermonkey) and output (format.spidermonkey) in #22623, found three bugs. terser has all three.

Input Before After
acorn tree of (() => { "use strict"; x = 1; })(); x=1;: the directive is lost, so the arrow runs sloppy and no longer throws (()=>{"use strict";x=1})();
console.log(`x${`y${a}`}z`) with format: { spidermonkey: true } throws node.to_mozilla_ast is not a function gives back one template, quasis xy, z
acorn tree of export default function () {} (or class) throws Cannot read properties of null (reading 'definition') export default function(){}
  • An arrow's directive is read as a function's already is, but only while corrections are on. With them off, the output is terser's again.
  • An inlined template leaves two text segments in a row, which are now merged into one quasi.
  • An anonymous default function or class is read as the expression it is, as for a source we parse ourselves.

What kind of change does this PR introduce?

fix

Did you add tests for your changes?

Yes: test/unitCases/syntax-printer.unittest.js, "a tree given or given back as ESTree". The tests fail without the fix and also check terser's behavior (its bytes with corrections off, or its throw).

Does this PR introduce a breaking change?

No

If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?

n/a. Covered by the pending changeset 025-javascript-minifier-corrections.md.

Use of AI

Written with Claude Code: it extended the fuzzer, reduced each failure to a repro, compared it with terser, wrote the failing tests, then the fixes. The requester asked for the work and reviews the results.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved JavaScript minification of ESTree input when source tokens are unavailable, including handling of leading directives and directive statements in arrow-function bodies when corrections are enabled.
    • Improved template literal conversion by combining adjacent text segments and regenerating raw text for untagged templates when corrections are enabled.
    • Corrected conversion of anonymous default-exported functions and classes when corrections are disabled.

… changed

Given as ESTree, an arrow kept its `"use strict"` as a statement, so its
body ran sloppy, and an anonymous `export default` function or class threw;
given back as ESTree, a template inlined into another threw.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The syntax printer updates ESTree conversion for directive prologues, default exports, and template literals. Unit tests cover these conversions and compare selected behavior with Terser and source-input minification.

Changes

Syntax Printer Conversions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Directive normalization
lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js, test/unitCases/syntax-printer.unittest.js, test/unitCases/syntax-printer-estree.unittest.js, .changeset/025-javascript-minifier-corrections.md
When corrections are enabled and source tokens are absent, block and program conversion use ESTree directive metadata. Arrow block conversion follows the directive-aware path. Tests cover directive recognition and corrections-disabled comparisons; the changeset description adds ESTree trees to the listed cases.
Default-export conversion
lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js, test/unitCases/syntax-printer.unittest.js
For tokenless input, named function and class declarations use declaration conversion when corrections are disabled. With corrections enabled, and for anonymous function or class declarations, conversion uses the exported-value path. Tests cover anonymous default exports across module options.
Template-literal conversion
lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js, test/unitCases/syntax-printer.unittest.js
Template conversion merges adjacent text segments and combines cooked values unless either is null. With corrections enabled, it regenerates raw text for untagged templates while preserving tagged-template raw text. Tests check returned template data and nested-template round-tripping.

Read Changed, test untouched first: the test is byte-identical on both sides, so webpack generated the difference. Changed, test edited moved partly because the test did — Test edit is how many bytes the test gained, and a bundle that grew by less is not a regression. New and Deleted are whole files, not deltas — a new asset was created, not grown, so it reads gray (⚪ added) — and adding tests cannot bury a real change. Gzip decides, because that is what users download; raw is the tiebreak, and brotli and zstd are per asset below.

No asset changed size.

No runtime gained or lost a runtime module.

Built test/configCases with the defaults a user gets: 2216 test(s), 8595 asset(s), 99 emitted nothing.

Keep the estree helper’s return type.

acorn.parse(...) has a specific inferred return type. The EXPECTED_ANY annotation discards it for every new test that calls this helper. Remove the @returns tag or use the parser’s return type. As per coding guidelines, “Use the most specific real type” and reserve EXPECTED_ANY for a value that genuinely can be any value. (github.com)

leading string given as ESTree no longer turns a body strict; the
tree's own `directive` field decides.

🟡 Minor · Escape an interpolation opener when merging raw template text. · syntax-printer.js:13366-13389

lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js:13366-13389
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Escape an interpolation opener when merging raw template text.

With input such as:

tag`${`x${a}$`}{`

the compressor can leave adjacent TemplateElement nodes whose raw values end with $ and begin with {. The ESTree conversion joins them as ${. Tagged-template printing emits raw unchanged, so the result starts another interpolation and can produce invalid output. Escape this boundary when joining the raw values.

Suggested fix
-					value.raw += segment.raw;
+					const escapeInterpolation =
+						value.raw.endsWith("$") &&
+						segment.raw.startsWith("{") &&
+						/(^|[^\\])(?:\\\\)*$/.test(value.raw.slice(0, -1));
+					value.raw = escapeInterpolation
+						? value.raw.slice(0, -1) + "\\$" + segment.raw
+						: value.raw + segment.raw;

🟡 Minor · Preserve a directive’s spelling when expression.raw is absent. · syntax-printer.js:11760

lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js:11760
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve a directive’s spelling when expression.raw is absent.

ESTree permits a directive with no expression.raw, and directive already holds its raw text without quotes. (github.com) If that text contains a backslash, JSON.stringify(directive) escapes it again. The converted directive then has different text. Add suitable quotes around the existing directive text without escaping it a second time.

Use the ESTree type for quasi.

quasi is a TemplateElement, not an arbitrary value. Annotate it as import("estree").TemplateElement so the assertion retains type checking for value. (github.com) As per coding guidelines, “Use the most specific real type” and reserve EXPECTED_ANY for a value that genuinely can be any value.

…s own generator (#22623)

* test(javascript): fuzz the parser, printer and minifier with webpack's own generator

Replaces terser's ufuzz with a seeded generator writing both the sloppy ES5
ufuzz writes and modern syntax (classes with private and static members,
generators, async functions, optional chaining, nullish coalescing,
destructuring, spread). Each program and output is held to acorn's tree,
the printer to the tree it read and to its own output, and every output,
under ufuzz's option sets and webpack's, to what its program prints.

* test(javascript): fuzz webpack's own rewrites, modules and random option combinations

The generator writes what the improve phase rewrites (built-ins on literals,
`||=` and `?.` shapes, unused reads) and half its programs as modules
with exports and top-level await; each program also meets two random option
combinations, and the reprint check compares tokens, not layout.

* test(javascript): fuzz rarer syntax, module graphs, bundles, source maps and a second minification

The generator now writes literal spellings, regular expressions, sloppy-only
forms, `with`, direct `eval`, `new.target`, `super` in objects, classes of
accessors and computed members, async generators and `for await`, patterns
in `catch` and loop heads, escaped and non-ASCII names, modules importing
and re-exporting a fixed `dep` with `import.meta` and `import()`, and
programs shaped as webpack writes a bundle.

The harness prints each module's exports, checks the default set's source
map against its output and source, minifies the strongest set's output a
second time, and draws more random options. It reads only what acorn reads
where acorn refuses valid code, and lets `unsafe` fold a function into its
text where the program reads that text.

* test(javascript): fuzz parser modes, broken regular expressions, ESTree, source maps and compiler output

Each program and output is also parsed off the lazy path, with locations and
comments; broken regular expressions are refused where the engine refuses
them; require scans match acorn; the minifier is run on named files, ESTree
in and out, a name cache and source maps read in; programs gain what Babel
and TypeScript write, comments and annotations.

Given as ESTree, an arrow kept its `"use strict"` as a statement, so its
body ran sloppy, and an anonymous `export default` function or class threw;
given back as ESTree, a template inlined into another threw.
