How to write a code test that covers const in javascript files

Question

Example I have a file called apiConfig.js

With a simply line of code:

const apiVersion = 'v1';

If I create a file called apiConfig.test.js

How do I write the code to test the const?

Export the const. Import into the test. Then expect that its value is what you want. — evolutionxbox, Jul 12 '21 at 20:13

If your ORG uses SonarQube you understand code coverage and I am trying to cover as much code as possible. I will read the getting started guide, evolutionbox. — Moojjoo, Jul 12 '21 at 22:31

This is more of a design issue than mechanics.

You should ask yourself why you want to test const.

I like the advice from here to split your code into two parts - one that is parameterized and can be tested properly, and the other which encodes the "constness".
