Can you add a test where the resulting length is >0 ?
Like Buffer.from('abx', 'hex')

@targos Good idea. Added!


// Test single base64 char encodes as 0
// Test that if a trailing character is discarded, rest of string is processed.
assert.deepStrictEqual(Buffer.from('Abx', 'hex'), Buffer.from('Ab', 'hex'));

// Test single base64 char encodes as 0.
assert.strictEqual(Buffer.from('A', 'base64').length, 0);
