Use the .getElementById() method to get the #date-options element and use const to assign it to a variable named dateOptionsSelectElement.
You should use const to declare a dateOptionsSelectElement variable.
assert.match(code, /const\s+dateOptionsSelectElement\s*=/);
You should use document.getElementById() to get the #date-options element.
assert.match(code, /document\.getElementById\(\s*('|"|`)date-options\1\s*\)/);
You should assign the #date-options element to your dateOptionsSelectElement variable.
assert(code.match(/const\s+dateOptionsSelectElement\s*=\s*document\.getElementById\(\s*('|"|`)date-options\1\s*\)/g));
