There are two approaches:

Method 1 (!==not equal)    //recommend 

var str_1 ="test 1";

var str_2 = "test 2";

 

if (str_1 != str_2 ){  //true

    alert("str_1 != str_2");

}else{

  alert("str_1 == str_2");

}

 

Method 2 (!== not equal value or not equal type)

if (str_1 !==str_2 ){  //true

//do something

}else{

//do something

}

A nice alternative using ternary operator:

var isNotEqual = "string1" !== "string2" ? "true" : "false";
gs.log(isNotEqual);
