No worries, we all make mistakes - now is the time to fix it! The CounselorBot will provide feedback on what went wrong with your code.
Step by step instructions on how to view feedback ▶️
First, click on Actions
at the top of your repository.
Next, find the commit that failed. You can identify it by the name you called the commit. Click on it!
Now, go ahead and click on ":x: build"
The step that failed should expand and you'll see feedback at the bottom.
For this one, the feedback was:
Error: Got: "hello world", was expecting: "Hello World".
In this case, the student should probably take another look at the capitalization in their code.
💡 Using this feedback, fix your code. Every time you commit, the action will run again to check your code!
Nope! Here's how to manually trigger a check for your code to move on:
- Go to
Actions
- Click on the specific workflow run that you want to run again.
- Click on build.
Refer to the previous section for screenshots
Click on Re-run jobs
. If your code is successful, the check will work and you will be able to move on.
