Browsers have a built in alert() function, which you can use to display a pop-up message to the user. The message to display is passed as the argument to the alert() function.
Using a template literal, in your if block, call the alert() function to tell the user "Invalid Input: ", followed by the first value in the invalidInputMatch array.
You should call the alert() function in your if block.
assert.match(getCaloriesFromInputs.toString(), /if\s*\(\s*invalidInputMatch\s*\)\s*\{\s*(?:window\.|globalThis\.)?alert\(/);
You should use a template literal to pass the "Invalid Input: " message to the alert() function.
// because it transforms template literals...
assert.match(code.split(/function\s+getCaloriesFromInputs/)[1], /(?:window\.|globalThis\.)?alert\(\s*`Invalid Input: /);
You should display the first element of the invalidInputMatch array after the "Invalid Input: " text by using a template literal.
assert.match(code.split(/function\s+getCaloriesFromInputs/)[1], /(?:window\.|globalThis\.)?alert\(\s*`Invalid Input: \${invalidInputMatch\s*\[\s*0\s*\]\s*}`\s*\)/);
