No Test Script Configured for Boilerplate

Tell us what’s happening:

To run the tests in the console, use the command npm run test . To open the Repl.it console, press Ctrl+Shift+P (Cmd if on a Mac) and type “open shell”

The instructions for this project suggests that we can run npm run test to be able to test the project, but a test command isn’t even configured in package.json.

I believe you’ll need to add the following to package.json:

"test": "mocha tests --ui tdd"

I think this is important to document, as even people that have used mocha before might not realize they need --ui tdd, at least I certainly didn’t.
