# Hello World
The classical introductory exercise. Just say "Hello, World!".
["Hello, World!"](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22Hello,_world!%22_program) is
the traditional first program for beginning programming in a new language
or environment.
The objectives are simple:
- Write a function that returns the string "Hello, World!".
- Run the test suite and make sure that it succeeds.
- Submit your solution and check it at the website.
If everything goes well, you will be ready to fetch your first real exercise.
## Setup
Go through the setup instructions for ECMAScript to
install the necessary dependencies:
http://exercism.io/languages/ecmascript/installation
## Requirements
Install assignment dependencies:
```bash
$ npm install
```
## Making the test suite pass
Execute the tests with:
```bash
$ npm test
```
In the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.
Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by
changing `xtest` to `test`.
