Yeah man, connect 4

Before you start

How to run

    npm start

For tests:

    npm test

Information

• We have set the project up so you can focus on the requirements, no need to worry about rendering anything to the screen. Anything in runner.js is not part the test, though if you finish the test, feel free to refactor it.
• The scaffold class (Connect4.js) has some expectations for it to work correctly:
  • has a board consisting of an nested array of strings
  • the string is only one character long
  • any errors thrown in Connect4.js will not alternate to the other player
