Fix AssertionError
in Node.js
✅ Solution
AssertionErrors in Node.js usually arise from failing `assert` module checks, indicating discrepancies between expected and actual values. Fix this by carefully examining the values being compared, using debugging or logging to pinpoint the source of the mismatch, and updating either the expected value or the code producing the actual value to ensure they align. When comparing objects, especially those with circular references, consider using a custom comparison function that handles the complexity to avoid infinite recursion and potential stack overflows.
