Need help 25 & 5 clock [REACT]

warning beeper is busted, watch your ears
passing 28 of 29 not really sure what I’m doing wrong.
Please help and take a look, it is saying value is 4 when it should be 5.
Using React Component state, I believe I am using prevState where appropriate, but it is failing nonetheless.

  1. When a session countdown reaches zero (NOTE: timer MUST reach 00:00), a new break countdown should begin, counting down from the value currently displayed in the id=“break-length” element.
    Timer has switched to Break time, but it didn’t start with the correct value.: expected 4 to equal 5
    AssertionError: Timer has switched to Break time, but it didn’t start with the correct value.: expected 4 to equal 5

Hi @davebowl ,

When the session timer ends and the break timer starts, the timer should start with the set break-length.
In your clock, the break timer starts with break-length -1. So, instead of say 5 :00, it starts with 4:59.
I rushed through your code and feel that maybe, the below line could be the problem.
breakTimer: this.state.breakTimer - 100

Hope it helps.

Hi @davebowl ,

Try the following on your clock:

  1. Set the session length to 1 (break length default value is 5).
  2. Start the timer and wait till it reaches 00:00

Expected output: Display 05:00 next and start the countdown from this point.

But the timer displays 04:59 and starts the countdown.
