im trying to nest these if statements together but when i type "test 1" it just keeps repeating working 1 in the console. if i type test 2 it works fine, what am i doing wrong here?

void showNewData() {
    if (newData == true) {
        Serial.print("This just in ... ");
        Serial.println(receivedChars);
              if (strcmp(receivedChars, "test 2") == 0) {
    Serial.println("working 2");
  }
        newData = false;
    } else
    
          if (strcmp(receivedChars, "test 1") == 0) {
    Serial.println("working 1");
  }
        newData = false;
    
}
