object-assign-deep/examples/arrayTest.js

Allows deep cloning of plain objects that contain primitives, nested plain objects, or nested plain arrays.

/*
 * ARRAY TEST
 *
 * [Description]
 *   Demonstrates that arrays are concatenated without removing duplicates, and are also recursed into to break
 *   references on any objects or arrays that are contained within.
 *
 * [Expected Output]
 *   {
 *     shallowArray: [ 'z', 'G', 'a' ],
 *     deepArray: [ 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, { deep: 'yes' }, 4, 5, 6 ] },
 *   }
