Help me on APIs and Microservices Projects - Timestamp Microservice

I passed all the test parameters except Your project can handle dates that can be successfully parsed by new Date(date_string)

any one can help, what does it mean ?

Welcome, armaulan.

Would you mind sharing a link to your project code?

here, https://boilerplate-project-timestamp.aryamaulana.repl.co/

I’m, guessing (didn’t test it) it’s because you are calling parseInt on the string. So when the string is in the format “05 October 2011” you get an incorrect output

timeStampFinal = new Date(parseInt(date_string))
parseInt('05 October 2011')
// 5

new Date(parseInt('05 October 2011'))
// Thu Jan 01 1970 01:00:00 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)

new Date('05 October 2011')
// Wed Oct 05 2011 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Central European Summer Time)

I believe there have been some updates to this challenge and this might be a new requirement that was added not too long ago.


Edit: here is the link to the editor code as well
