title: Make a CSS Heartbeat using an Infinite Animation Count

## Description
<section id='description'>
Here's one more continuous animation example with the <code>animation-iteration-count</code> property that uses the heart you designed in a previous challenge.
The one-second long heartbeat animation consists of two animated pieces. The <code>heart</code> elements (including the <code>:before</code> and <code>:after</code> pieces) are animated to change size using the <code>transform</code> property, and the background <code>div</code> is animated to change its color using the <code>background</code> property.
</section>

## Instructions
<section id='instructions'>
Keep the heart beating by adding the <code>animation-iteration-count</code> property for both the <code>back</code> class and the <code>heart</code> class and setting the value to infinite. The <code>heart:before</code> and <code>heart:after</code> selectors do not need any animation properties.
</section>

## Tests
<section id='tests'>

```yml
tests:
  - text: The <code>animation-iteration-count</code> property for the <code>heart</code> class should have a value of infinite.
    testString: assert($('.heart').css('animation-iteration-count') == 'infinite', 'The <code>animation-iteration-count</code> property for the <code>heart</code> class should have a value of infinite.');
  - text: The <code>animation-iteration-count</code> property for the <code>back</code> class should have a value of infinite.
    testString: assert($('.back').css('animation-iteration-count') == 'infinite', 'The <code>animation-iteration-count</code> property for the <code>back</code> class should have a value of infinite.');
