Is code comment removal broken?

Another example, I would expect this code to pass if the comment was removed.

const FCC = "freeCodeCamp"; // Change this line
let fact = "is cool!"; // Change this line
fact = "is awesome!";
console.log(FCC, fact); // Change this line
// var test = 'test';

Hi there @raditotev I don’t think we want to strip js comments from challenges that use the DOM. Mostly because it increases the possibility of error (strip-comments assumes that it’s being called on code in a single language). Also because there aren’t any comments inside script tags in html challenges (to my knowledge).

I think @nhcarrigan’s approach is best - namely to refactor any tests that use getUserInput form just to use code. Once that’s done we can stop catering for getUserInput entirely.
