# --description--
Now it is time to test out the pause button.
Add a `"click"` event listener to the `pauseButton` element, then pass in `pauseSong` as the second argument of the event listener. This is the function the event listener will run.
Test out your app by first clicking on the play button followed by the pause button. You should see that everything is working as expected.
# --hints--
You should call the `addEventListener()` method on your `pauseButton` variable.
```js
assert.match(code, /pauseButton\.addEventListener\(/)
```
Your event listener should listen for a `"click"` event.
```js
assert.match(code, /pauseButton\.addEventListener\(\s*('|"|`)click\1/)
```
You should pass in `pauseSong` as the second argument of your `addEventListener` method.
```js
assert.match(code, /pauseButton\.addEventListener\(\s*('|"|`)click\1\s*,\s*pauseSong\s*\)/)
```
