Fix
Lib.sort
's tests which are failing in Chrome v70+.Background:
Chrome v70+ introduces a new implementation of
Array.prototype.sort
which optimizes sorting pre-sorted arrays. Our ownLib.sort
doesn't win the shootout anymore so the tests have to be relaxed to reflect that. Beating the browser was only gravy anyway.Thanks to @Marc-Andre-Rivet for pointing this out to me :)
