JavaScript: Cash Register - wrong test assertion

JavaScript
1

Last test case:
This is incorrect:
{status: "CLOSED", change: [["PENNY", 0.5], ["NICKEL", 0], ["DIME", 0], ["QUARTER", 0], ["ONE", 0], ["FIVE", 0], ["TEN", 0], ["TWENTY", 0], ["ONE HUNDRED", 0]]}

Should be:
{status: "CLOSED", change: [["PENNY", 0.5]]}

Then you have incorrect assertions in all ‘OPEN’ cases as they do not require all of the denominations

The challenge wants you to take care of three circumstances.

  1. When you have enough money to give back the change and have money left in your drawer
    even after paying the change.

For this instructions say,

Return {status: "OPEN", change: [...]} , with the change due in coins and bills, sorted in highest to lowest order, as the value of the change key.

  1. When total money in your drawer is equal to amount you have to pay in change.

Instructions in the challenge say following for it.

Return {status: "CLOSED", change: [...]} with cash-in-drawer as the value for the key change if it is equal to the change due.

  1. And,finally, when cash in your drawer is not enough to pay the change.

This is instruction for that:

Return {status: "INSUFFICIENT_FUNDS", change: []} if cash-in-drawer is less than the change due, or if you cannot return the exact change.

Does that clear your confusion?

Changing the type of output for the same property makes absolutely no sense to me, therefore my brain must have TLDRed it :slight_smile:
