Description

const Comp = (props) => <div className={props.nested.className}>{props.nested.text}</div>;
Comp.propTypes = {
    nested: React.PropTypes.object.isRequired,
    text: React.PropTypes.string.isRequired
};

Property text should be marked as unused. Rule configuration: "react/no-unused-prop-types": ["error", {skipShapeProps: true}].

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the rule 'no unused prop types' traverses propTypes and identify why skipShapeProps option causes it to miss unused nested prop types.
