Description

Some unit tests were failing when the timezone of the OS had a positive UTC/GMT offset. This has been fixed by using UTC date format as input for the tested methods:

// const date = new Date(2022, 5, 3);
const date = new Date(Date.UTC(2022, 5, 3));

Instructions for Reviewers

If you live in a region where the UTC/GMT offset is negative, then change the time zone of your OS so that the UTC/GMT offset is positive (e.g. Europe Central Time, GMT+0100). You can check the offset on your browser's console:

console.log(new Date())
