Remove message parameter from strictEqual() #20911

• Version: v10.1.0
• Platform: UNIX
• Subsystem: test/parallel

Got this good first issue to work on, courtesy Node Todo.

Problem

Take a look at test/parallel/test-require-process.js.

The last thing in the test is a call to assert.strictEqual(). It has a string literal as its third argument.

Unfortunately, that means that the diff between the two values being compared will be suppressed if there is an AssertionError.

That's not helpful for debugging.

Solution

Remove the third argument from the call and make it a comment above the call to assert.strictEqual().

🙏 Thanks a ton @Trott for guidance! Looking forward to get my first contribution landed into Node.js core.
