Love to see the two constants LETTER_VALUE and LETTER_POOL up top! 🧡

Great helper function!

This doesn't quite mimic the action of pulling out a random letter form a bag of properly weighted letters (here, there's an equal chance of pulling out a E as a Z due to L28, despite E being much more likely to be drawn) but it's a good start!

const inputUpper = input.toUpperCase();

for (const letter of inputUpper) {
if (lettersInHandMap.has(letter) === true) {

Refactor to:

if (lettersInHandMap.has(letter)) {

const correct = { word: "XXXX", score: scoreWord("XXXX") };

throw "Complete test by adding an assertion";
expect(highestScoreFrom(words)).toEqual(correct);

Great tiebreaker logic in a neat helper function!
