# --description--

As a reminder, this project is being built upon the following starter project on [Repl.it](https://repl.it/github/freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-mochachai), or cloned from [GitHub](https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-mochachai/).

`include()` and `notInclude()` work for strings too! `include()` asserts that the actual string contains the expected substring.

# --instructions--

Within `tests/1_unit-tests.js` under the test labelled `#14` in the `Strings` suite, change each `assert` to either `assert.include` or `assert.notInclude` to make the test pass (should evaluate to `true`). Do not alter the arguments passed to the asserts.

# --hints--

All tests should pass.

```js
(getUserInput) =>
  $.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=13').then(
    (data) => {
      assert.equal(data.state, 'passed');
    },
    (xhr) => {
      throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
    }
  );
```

You should choose the correct method for the first assertion - `include` vs. `notInclude`.

```js
(getUserInput) =>
  $.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=13').then(
    (data) => {
      assert.equal(
        data.assertions[0].method,
        'include',
        "'Arrow' contains 'row'..."
      );
    },
    (xhr) => {
      throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
    }
  );
```

You should choose the correct method for the second assertion - `include` vs. `notInclude`.

```js
(getUserInput) =>
  $.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=13').then(
    (data) => {
      assert.equal(
        data.assertions[1].method,
        'notInclude',
        "... a 'dart' doesn't contain a 'queue'"
      );
    },
    (xhr) => {
      throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
    }
  );
```
