Keeping it or its in the variable names would probably make them more meaningful.

To ensure thorough testing, we need broad scenarios that cover all possible cases.
Listing individual values, however, can quickly lead to an unmanageable number of test cases.
Instead of writing tests for individual numbers, consider grouping all possible input values into meaningful categories.
Then, select representative samples from each category to test. This approach improves coverage and makes our tests easier to maintain.
For example, we can prepare a test for numbers 2, 22, 132, etc. as
test("append 'nd' to numbers ending in 2, except those ending in 12", () => {
expect( getOrdinalNumber(2) ).toEqual("2nd");
expect( getOrdinalNumber(22) ).toEqual("22nd");
expect( getOrdinalNumber(132) ).toEqual("132nd");
});

How would the caller distinguish the result of the following two function calls?
repeat("invalid", 1)repeat("", -1)
| test("should repeat the string count times", () => { | ||
| const str = "hello"; | ||
| const count = -1; | ||
| const repeatedStr = repeat(str, count); | ||
| expect(repeatedStr).toEqual("invalid"); | ||
| }); |

If you modified repeat() to throw an error when count is negative, and you wanted to test if the function can throw an error as expected, you can use .toThrow(). You can find out more about how to use .toThrow() here: https://jestjs.io/docs/expect#tothrowerror (Note: Pay close attention to the syntax of the example)

The changes made to the repeat() function and its tests look good.

How should its be included into twoLastDig to make the variable name more meaningful than itsTwoLastDigs?

These test categories have been improved but still not fully comprehensive; collectively they haven't yet covered all possible cases.
-
And you can consider merge some of these tests into one category.
Can you try to further improve them. Feel free to ask AI for some suggestions.
Renamed variables for clarity and added more complete, grouped test cases
|
Thank you for your feedback! I have updated the variable names to make them clearer and also improved the test cases by adding more examples and grouping similar ones together. |

Did you prepare this test because the function is supposed to behave like that, or because your function is behaving like that?
