The level used to instantiate an employee should be chosen among specific levels. You'll use _base_salaries to validate the level and set the right salary for the employee.
After your existing if statement, create another if that checks if level is not in Employee._base_salaries.
Inside the new if statement, raise a ValueError with the message Invalid value '{level}' for 'level' attribute., where {level} should be replaced by the value of the level argument.
When level is not in Employee._base_salaries, you should raise a ValueError with the message Invalid value '{level}' for 'level' attribute., where {level} should be replaced by the value of the level argument.
({ test: () => runPython(`
try:
Employee("Frank", "dreamer")
except ValueError as e:
assert str(e) == "Invalid value 'dreamer' for 'level' attribute."
else:
assert False, "Expected to raise ValueError with invalid level"
`) })
You should not raise any exception when level is in Employee._base_salaries.

levels = [
"trainee",
"junior",
"mid-level",

for level in levels:

assert False, f"Expected not to raise ValueError with level '{level}'"
`) })
