componentWillReceiveProps is always invoked in shallow, even getDerivedStateFromProps exists #1692

Description

As I tested, the componentWillReceiveProps will always be invoked when after calling shallowWrapper.setProps(), even though getDeriveStateFromProps exists. But referred to this, all the UNSAFE lifecycle methods should not be invoked when getDerivedStateFromProps exists.

By the way, componentWillUpdate and componentWillMount behaves correctly in shallow.
And, for mount, all the UNSAFE methods won't be invoked when component have getDerivedStateFromProps method

Code

import SomeComponent from '../SomeComponent';
import Enzyme, { render, shallow, mount } from 'enzyme';
import Adapter from 'enzyme-adapter-react-16';
import React from 'react';

describe("enzyme tests life cycles", () => {
  Enzyme.configure({adapter: new Adapter()});

  let renderSpy, getDerivedStateFromPropsSpy, componentDidMountSpy,
    shouldComponentUpdateSpy, componentDidUpdateSpy, componentWillUnmountSpy, componentWillMountSpy,
    componentWillUpdateSpy, componentWillReceivePropsSpy;
  beforeEach(() => {
    renderSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'render');
    getDerivedStateFromPropsSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent, 'getDerivedStateFromProps');
    componentDidMountSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'componentDidMount');
    shouldComponentUpdateSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'shouldComponentUpdate');
    componentDidUpdateSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'componentDidUpdate');
    componentWillUnmountSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'componentWillUnmount');
    componentWillMountSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'componentWillMount');
    componentWillUpdateSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'componentWillUpdate');
    componentWillReceivePropsSpy = jest.spyOn(SomeComponent.prototype, 'componentWillReceiveProps');
  });
  afterEach(() => {
    jest.clearAllMocks();
  });


  it('shallow called hooks', async () => {
    const wrapper = shallow(<SomeComponent/>);
    expect(renderSpy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
    expect(getDerivedStateFromPropsSpy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
    expect(componentWillMountSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
    expect(componentDidMountSpy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
    expect(shouldComponentUpdateSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
    expect(componentDidUpdateSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
    expect(componentWillUnmountSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();

    await wrapper.setProps({a: 1});
    expect(getDerivedStateFromPropsSpy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(2);
    expect(componentWillReceivePropsSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
    expect(shouldComponentUpdateSpy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
    expect(componentWillUpdateSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
    expect(componentDidUpdateSpy).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
    expect(componentWillUnmountSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled();

  });
});

I am expecting the tests to pass, but the result shows that

expect(componentWillReceivePropsSpy).not.toHaveBeenCalled(); failed.
