1. Introduction

In this web page there is one web browser JavaScript feature support test: a feature implementation test. The implementation test determines if the web browser recognizes the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. The implementation test is a simple test for the presence of web browser support, and a definitive test for the absence of web browser support. If the web browser does not recognize the JavaScript spread operator in array literals, the implementation test reports: Fail (no support): The web browser does not recognize the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. The web browser does not support the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. If the web browser recognizes the JavaScript spread operator in array literals, the implementation test reports: Pass (at least partial/possibly full support): The web browser recognizes the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. The web browser at least partially/possibly fully supports the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. Positive determination of full web browser support is beyond the scope of this test.

The web browser support test source code is shown in Section 2.1. The web browser support test source code is run in Section 2.2, which shows the web browser support test result.

1.1. Spread Operator In Array Literals Web Browser Support

  • Pass (at least partial/possibly full support): ED12+, FF16+, CH46+, OP33+.
  • Fail (no support): IE11-, SF5.1.7-.

1.2. Abbreviations

  • ED = Edge Legacy 12 - 18 (EdgeHTML based) and Edge 79+ (Chromium based).
  • FF = Firefox.
  • SF = Safari.
  • CH = Chrome.
  • OP = Opera.

2. Spread Operator In Array Literals Web Browser Support Test

2.1. Web Browser Support Test Source Code

<p id='testId'><b>Fail</b> (no support): The web browser does not recognize the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. The web browser does not support the JavaScript spread operator in array literals.</p><!-- Hard code Fail because web browser no support error stops JavaScript execution. -->

<script>
var arrayLiteralOne = [1, 2, 3];
var arrayLiteralTwo = [7, 8, 9];
var arrayLiteralTest = [0, ...arrayLiteralOne, 4, 5, 6, ...arrayLiteralTwo, 10];
if (arrayLiteralTest.toString() === "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10"){
 var element = document.getElementById("testId");
 element.innerHTML = "<b>Pass</b> (at least partial/possibly full support): The web browser recognizes the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. The web browser at least partially/possibly fully supports the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. Positive determination of full web browser support is beyond the scope of this test.";
}
</script>

2.2. Web Browser Support Test Result

Fail (no support): The web browser does not recognize the JavaScript spread operator in array literals. The web browser does not support the JavaScript spread operator in array literals.
