title: Use the Triple Equals to Assert Strict Equality

# --description--
As a reminder, this project is being built upon the following starter project on [Replit](https://replit.com/github/freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-mochachai), or cloned from [GitHub](https://github.com/freeCodeCamp/boilerplate-mochachai/).
`strictEqual()` compares objects using `===`.
# --instructions--
Within `tests/1_unit-tests.js` under the test labelled `#6` in the `Equality` suite, change each `assert` to either `assert.strictEqual` or `assert.notStrictEqual` 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=5').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(data.state, 'passed');
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
```
You should choose the correct method for the first assertion - `strictEqual` vs. `notStrictEqual`.
```js
(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=5').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(
data.assertions[0].method,
'notStrictEqual',
'with strictEqual the type must match'
);
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
```
You should choose the correct method for the second assertion - `strictEqual` vs. `notStrictEqual`.
```js
(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=5').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(data.assertions[1].method, 'strictEqual', '3*2 = 6...');
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
```
You should choose the correct method for the third assertion - `strictEqual` vs. `notStrictEqual`.
```js
(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=5').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(
data.assertions[2].method,
'strictEqual',
"6 * '2' is 12. Types match !"
);
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
```
You should choose the correct method for the fourth assertion - `strictEqual` vs. `notStrictEqual`.
```js
(getUserInput) =>
$.get(getUserInput('url') + '/_api/get-tests?type=unit&n=5').then(
(data) => {
assert.equal(
data.assertions[3].method,
'notStrictEqual',
'Even if they have the same elements, the Arrays are notStrictEqual'
);
},
(xhr) => {
throw new Error(xhr.responseText);
}
);
```
