Yup Validation for sign up schema not enforcing an array of strings for locationTracking property

in server/middleware/validation/validators.js

I have a schema im trying to enforce with yup and ensure that the data inside the array are strings, here is the yup schema:

locationTracking: yup
        .array()
        .of(yup.string())
        .required('locationTracking is required')
        .typeError('locationTracking must be an array')
        .min(1, 'locationTracking must have at least one location'),

    });

I also attempted adding the required and typeError methods

locationTracking: yup
            .array()
            .of(yup.string().require().typeError('data must be strings'))
            .required('locationTracking is required')
            .typeError('locationTracking must be an array')
            .min(1, 'locationTracking must have at least one location'),

        });

the schema enforces that locationTracking is an array but does not enforce that it needs to be an array of strings. Arrays of numbers, booleans etc all fly by this validation.

the data being validated is the req.body being sent as json by postman, i thought theres was some sort of type coercion occurring but when I check for the type of data, it returns number, boolean etc, so completely flying by my validation
