TypeError [ERR_UNESCAPED_CHARACTERS]: Request path contains unescaped characters

[mvasin]

I cloned the repo, downloaded selenium standalone server from https://www.seleniumhq.org/download/, did export SELENIUM='/full/path/to/selenium-server-standalone-3.141.0.jar', replaced USERNAME and ACCESS_KEY in BrowserStackRemoteUnit.js with my credentials, did npm init -y && npm add mocha and finally ./node_modules/.bin/mocha mocha/BrowserStackRemoteUnit.js.

After that I get
