Get string value out of typescript enum

Question

I define a simple enum like so:

export enum Type {
    TEST_ONE = "testing.one",
    TEST_TWO = "testing.two",
    BETA = "beta.one"
}

Now I want to execute a function for each enum string value. Let's say something like this:

executeType(type: string) { console.log(type) }

Object.keys(Type).forEach(
    type => {
        executeType(type);
    }
)

This outputs the enum values like TEST_ONE and BETA. How would I go about printing testing.one and beta.one. I've tried using type.toString() and type.valueOf().

Object.entries(Type).forEach(    
    (entry: [string, string]) => {   
        console.log(entry[1]);    
    }
)

wow thanks! Not sure how I missed "entries". Seems so obvious now that I look at it, as I was iterating over "keys"

I believe it was easy to miss if you targeted es version less than es2017
