Expected Result

The end location ofProgram differs between@typescript-eslint/parser and Espree.

Both TS-ESLint and Espree set the start location ofProgram as the first token, excluding whitespace and comments.

Espree sets the end location as the last token, also excluding whitespace and comments. However,@typescript-eslint/parser does not match that behavior - end location ofProgram is the end of the file.

I assume that@typescript-eslint/parser is aiming to align with Espree, and therefore this difference is unintentional.

Acorn does not exclude whitespace/comments fromeither start or end location. It's unfortunate the the 2 most-used ESTree-compatible parsers do not match each others' behavior, and personally I prefer the Acorn way - I think it's surprising that you can have comments which have locationsoutside theProgram which contains them. But I imagine quite possible that neither Acorn nor Espree may want to make a breaking change.

Examples:

• @typescript-eslint/parser
• Espree
• Acorn

Actual Result

See above.
