* add forwards slashes to path redirects

* fix cypress path tests again

* plese cypress

* fix: test different challenge

Okay so I literally have no idea why this one particular challenge
fails in Cypress Firefox ONLY. Tom and I paired and spun a full build
instance and confirmed in Firefox the page loads and redirects as
expected. Changing to another bootstrap challenge passes Cypress firefox
locally. Absolutely boggled by this.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

* fix: separate the test

Okay apparently the test does not work unless we separate it into
a different `it` statement.

bad87fee1348bd9aed308826 Target the Parent of an Element Using jQuery 6 18321 target-the-parent-of-an-element-using-jquery

--description--

Every HTML element has a parent element from which it inherits properties.

For example, your jQuery Playground h3 element has the parent element of <div class="container-fluid">, which itself has the parent body.

jQuery has a function called parent() that allows you to access the parent of whichever element you've selected.

Here's an example of how you would use the parent() function if you wanted to give the parent element of the left-well element a background color of blue:

$("#left-well").parent().css("background-color", "blue")

Give the parent of the #target1 element a background-color of red.

--hints--

Your left-well element should have a red background.

assert(
  $('#left-well').css('background-color') === 'red' ||
    $('#left-well').css('background-color') === 'rgb(255, 0, 0)' ||
    $('#left-well').css('background-color').toLowerCase() === '#ff0000' ||
    $('#left-well').css('background-color').toLowerCase() === '#f00'
);

You should use the .parent() function to modify this element.

assert(code.match(/\.parent\s*\(\s*\)\s*\.css/g));

The .parent() method should be called on the #target1 element.

assert(
  code.match(/\$\s*?\(\s*?(?:'|")\s*?#target1\s*?(?:'|")\s*?\)\s*?\.parent/gi)
);

You should only use jQuery to add these classes to the element.

assert(code.match(/<div class="well" id="left-well">/g));
