Description Michael Rennie CLA 2015-02-09 14:47:17 EST 
Consider the following snippet:

var f = {
    /**
     * @returns {Array.<String>} Returns an array of strings or the empty array, never null.
     */
    one: function() {},
    two: o//<-- assist here
};

Steps:
1.activate assist where indicated
2. notice the return type of 'one' is shown as 'undefined'
3. change the @returns to @return
4. activate assist
5. notice the rerurn type is correct -> Array.<String>
