The question was specifically raised for splitArray() -- the test was passing when a student had statically defined the correct strings within the function.
it('function "splitArray" should return a sentence like "Tim Horton was a Donut."', function() {
assert.equal(fns.splitArray (['Tim', 'Horton', 'Donut']), 'Tim Horton was a Donut.',
'Ohh, that\'s not as delicious as I expected.');
});
