Creating Promise wrappers with Promise.resolve() and Promise.reject()
It is useful to have the ability to create promise objects that have already reached a final state with a defined value, and also to be able to normalize JavaScript objects into promises. Promise.resolve() and Promise.reject() afford you the ability to perform both these actions.

How to do it...
Like all other static Promise methods, Promise.resolve() and Promise.reject() return a promise object. In this case, there is no executor definition.
If one of these methods is provided with a non-promise argument, the returned promise will assume either a fulfilled or rejected state (corresponding to the invoked method). This method will pass the argument to Promise.resolve() and Promise.reject(), along with any corresponding handlers:
Promise.resolve('foo');
// Promise {[[PromiseStatus]]: "resolved", [[PromiseValue]]: "foo...
