I'm reading someone else's JavaScript code and came across this line of code:
/* istanbul ignore next */
What does this line of code do?
istanbul is a JavaScript code coverage tool.
Some things are hard to test, so /* istanbul ignore next */ tells istanbul to skip and not include the next thing in your source code when calculating code coverage for your project.

It's a way to exclude code in your project in code coverage reports.
