--description--

As a reminder, this project is being built upon the following starter project on Gitpod, or cloned from GitHub.

isString or isNotString asserts that the actual value is a string.

--instructions--

Within tests/1_unit-tests.js under the test labeled #13 in the Strings suite, change each assert to either assert.isString or assert.isNotString to make the test pass (should evaluate to true). Do not alter the arguments passed to the asserts.

--hints--

All tests should pass.

(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=12').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(data.state, 'passed');
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);

You should choose the correct method for the first assertion - isString vs. isNotString.

(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=12').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(
data.assertions[0].method,
'isNotString',
'A float number is not a string'
);
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);

You should choose the correct method for the second assertion - isString vs. isNotString.

(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=12').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(
data.assertions[1].method,
'isString',
'environment vars are strings (or undefined)'
);
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);

You should choose the correct method for the third assertion - isString vs. isNotString.

(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=12').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(data.assertions[2].method, 'isString', 'A JSON is a string');
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
