Lab 3.1 not working as expected

Validate.js is not running on Windows. I had to modify "npm" to "npm.cmd" for spawning the server spawn("npm.cmd", ["start"] ...

Also in the dataCheck function (windows and linux), content is an array buffer and data is a string, so, those will never be equal. Maybe I'm missing something?

Other issue I've found is that the spawned process is never terminated, I had to kill the process to verify again.

    I am having the same issue with dataCheck. Have to use content.toString() to get the test pass...

    Test 2 tests for /foo, but the definition requires /

    Yeah i had to do the same. At line 36 of the validate.js there is not conversion of the buffer to a string.

    thanks for the feedback everyone, fixes for all of this are incoming. @ariel15584 did you find other exercises using spawn('npm'... broke on windows?

    @davidmarkclements I've tried only three labs and all failed on windows, after that, I did all other labs on Linux. Probably all of them have the same issue.

    I've got the same issue on MacOS. content is a Buffer and the strict assertion fails. Don't think it is spesific for some platform
