Answer 1

The test fails because lab detected a global variable leak:

The following leaks were detected:lr

This means you probably defined the lr variable somewhere as global. Try to find where you did that and make the variable local. The other option is to run lab with the -l option which disables global variable leak detection (it is not recommended though).

Answer 2

I resolved this by deleting my node_modules folder and running "npm install" again since my major versions of both node & npm had changed.
