Use the .getElementById() method to target the element with the id attribute with the value of the inputVal property of the current object. Then, use the .remove() method on that element to remove it from the DOM after the delay.
You should use the .getElementById() method to target the element where the id attribute matches the value of inputVal for the current object.
assert.lengthOf(
String(showAnimation).match(
/document\.getElementById\s*\(\s*obj\.inputVal\s*\)|document\.getElementById\s*\(\s*obj\s*\[\s*('|"|`)\s*inputVal\s*\1\s*\]\s*\)/g
),
2
);
You should chain the .remove() method to the .getElementById() method.
assert.match(
String(showAnimation),
/document\.getElementById\s*\(\s*obj\.inputVal\s*\)\s*\.\s*remove\s*\(\s*\)|document\.getElementById\s*\(\s*obj\s*\[\s*('|"|`)\s*inputVal\s*\1\s*\]\s*\)\s*\.\s*remove\s*\(\s*\)/g
);
