Description

These are (roughly) the tests.

I was unable to do this because mocha flips out when the fetch method throws an error. If anyone knows a way to test this code path – let me know!

Contributor guide

Research direction
To test the promise rejection, wrap the fetch call in a try/catch or use the promise's .catch() method. In Mocha, you can use 'it('should reject', function() { return expect(promise).to.be.rejected; })' with chai as promised. Alternatively, use async/await with try/catch.
