This is a good candidate for a template string.

Ping @furnox: Any chance you can update this to reflect the comments from @cjihrig?

@Trott I had a question about that that seemed to be made moot by the pr approval and lack of a formal request.

Respectfully, what would the expectation be if one had a burr under their saddle to go through and update all the tests and convert all the "var" statements to something more modern and appropriate? Would the attitude be that incremental change in the right direction is better than no change, or would that pr be plagued by "while in there you should have..." or "this unrelated code ought be be changed too"?

Now, I want to contribute and I'll make these changes, but, frankly, if every time I pull a thread certain people aren't going to be happy unless I pull enough thread to make another sweater, I'm not going to be real inclined to pull any threads.

(My viewpoint only below. Others may see things differently.)

Currently, that would mean updating 876 files. The relatively modest value of the change combined with the risk of introducing subtle bugs and the difficulty of adequately reviewing such a large change means that doing all 876 files in a single PR would be unlikely to be accepted.

For better or worse, the approach of the project to updating var to const or let in tests has been to do it incidentally while one is already making other changes to a test. There are certainly arguments against that approach and I myself dislike it quite a bit to be honest. (That said, the project is run on consensus and the appropriate approach to updating tests from var to const and let is not a battle I choose to fight.)

My approach has been to not worry much about var to const and let in tests and to consider those 876 files as 876 good first commits for newcomers.

That said, there is currently at least one person going through the tests one at a time and updating var to let and const while also changing assert.equal() to assert.strictEqual(). I'm neutral on that approach, but it seems to be working for them. Their PRs seem to get approved. So maybe consider that approach?
