Above answers are good  But this is good too and useful    obj  your key       if  your key  not in obj the result -- gt  true   It s good for short style of code special in if statements   if   obj  your key            if  your key  not exist in obj     console log  key not in obj      else          if  your key  exist in obj     console log  key exist in obj        Note  If your key be equal to null or    your  if  statement will be wrong   obj     a        b   null   d    value    obj  a         result --- gt  true  obj  b         result --- gt  true  obj  c         result --- gt  true  obj  d         result --- gt  false   So  best way for checking if a key exists in a obj is  a  in obj

That s not a jQuery object  it s just an object   You can use the hasOwnProperty method to check for a key   if  obj hasOwnProperty  key1

User · Answer

Use the in operator   testArray    key1  in obj      Sidenote  What you got there  is actually no jQuery object  but just a plain JavaScript Object
