HTML Preparation code:
<script> class TestClass { constructor() { this.a = 2; this.t = 'mesh'; } } </script>
Script Preparation code:
var obj = new TestClass();
Tests:
instanceof
obj instanceof TestClass;
string type
obj.t === 'mesh'
string type + undefined
obj.t !== undefined
property
obj.a !== undefined
constructor comparison
obj.constructor === TestClass
