This indicates that the check being performed refers to the shop, not any particular question.


These operators check the shop date or day of week. For the date checks, the date should be entered in single or double quotes in the format YYYY-MM-DD; for example:

ifQ()
.dateIs('2011-12-25') // if the shop was performed on December 25, 2011


Days of the week can be entered as the full day name in single or double quotes ('Monday'), the three-letter abbreviation in single or double quotes ('Mon'), or a numeric value (0 to 6, where 0 is Sunday and 6 is Saturday):

ifQ()
.dayIs('Monday') // if the shop was performed on a Monday
