Tell us what’s happening: I am unable to hit the “run the tests” button. It seems to have stopped functioning so I am unable to proceed.

  **Your code so far**


var myStr = "I am a \"double-quoted"\ string inside \"double quotes"\.";

2

is there something written in the console, where the “running tests” should appear?

3

Yes. Run the tests appears there. but nothing happens when i click on it

4

No, I mean this:

SyntaxError: unknown: Expecting Unicode escape sequence \uXXXX (1:37)

> 1 | var myStr = "I am a \"double-quoted"\ string inside \"double quotes"\."; 
    |                                      ^

it appears in Tests on mobile view or the console in desktop view:

console in desktop view , I believe

6

then you should see it, it’s just below the editor

that error is why the tests are not running

7

what should i do to remove that error

8

you are not escaping the quotes so the string ends prematurely and you get that error

9

I believe I did the right thing. kindly go through my code and tell me where I could be wrong

10

this quote is not escaped

look at error, it is pointing at the issue

11 
var myStr = "I am a \"double-quoted\" string inside \"double quotes\". ";

I corrected it earlier. the error still shows

12

I don’t see the error now, I can run the tests (which are failing, but they run)

they are failing because your strig needs to match exactly with no extra characters

13

it has been resolved. Thank you
