For some reason this switch is not reaching any of the cases defined
const resultList = ['pass', 'fail', 'skip']
for(const result in resultList){
try {
const endpoint = 'www.url.com';
const response = await axios.get(endpoint);
console.log(endpoint, response)
if(response.status == 200){
console.log('status code good')
switch(result){
case 'pass':
console.log('case = pass');
this.passed = response.data;
break;
case 'fail':
console.log('case = fail');
this.failed = response.data;
break;
case 'skip':
console.log('case = skip');
this.skipped = response.data;
break;
}
}
}
catch(error) {
console.log(error)
}
}
I am seeing 200 responses from the API, however I never see any of the case logs... what am I doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance for the help
The for...in loop iterate over the keys in a list, in this case:
const resultList = ['pass', 'fail', 'skip']
for(const result in resultList){
console.log(result)
}
Will print
0
1
2
And for this, the condition on the switch fails.
To iterate over the values of a list, use the for...of loop.
for(const result of resultList) { ... }
As expected; the solution was a minor change as highlighted by @kellys comment... the cases were never met because it was using the index as opposed to the value.
const resultList = ['pass', 'fail', 'skip']
for(const result of resultList)
