How to remove the double quotes?
I am trying to pass in
"HO_1,HO_2"
from a cucumber feature file.
I am trying to pass that value into a Chai include call, so it needs to be in the format of:
"HO_1", "HO_2"
I am currently using a split and join to create the format as such:
const splitE = (('"'+(eventTag.split(",")).join('", "')+'"'));
And this console.logs:
"HO_1", "HO_2"
But when I then try to pass splitE into the chai call:
expect(estring).to.include(splitE);
Its trying to pass the variable in as a string and it is being passed in as
expect(estring).to.include(""HO_1", "HO_2"");
And it doesn't work, how do I remove the quotes around what I have passed?

Actually what you are trying to do is not yet supported in Chai framework, because .include() method accepts only one value, so both your values will be treated as one string.
What you can do is to use .satisfy() method, to check for both substrings :
expect(estring).to.satisfy(estring =>
eventTag.split(",").some(b => estring.includes(b))
);
You can check, the Check that string contains multiple other strings open issue, in Github for further details.

Chai requires the input to be the quoted and comma separated list, "a","b" so i need to keep the quotes, just not the double quotes being passed to the function

@Karl In that case you need to change your code to match bothsubstrings, you can use.satisfy()for example, I updated my answer, with a drawback for this case.
