delete the marker along the circle around it - openstreetmap

Question

I am working with Open Street Maps and using leaflet library.
I have a layer group like this:
var testLayer = new L.LayerGroup(); --> declared in a different file
I want to add markers to a marker group, add a circle around each marker, and add the marker group to the map:
var realMarker = L.marker([52.6432, -6.53412 ],{icon: Icon,title:data[choice][key]["name"]
}).bindPopup("Dublin").addTo(testLayer);
var circle = L.circle([52.6432, -6.53412 ],400, {
color: 'red',
fillColor: '#f03',
fillOpacity: 0.5
}).addTo(testLayer);
map.addLayer(testLayer);
However, when I delete a particular marker from the marker group by using removeLayer(), the marker is removed from the map but the circle is left behind. How can I delete the circle along with the marker?

Answer 1

I'd store a reference to the circle in the marker:
var realMarker = L.marker([52.6432, -6.53412 ],
{icon: Icon,title:data[choice][key]["name"]}
).bindPopup("Dublin").addTo(testLayer);
var circle = L.circle([52.6432, -6.53412 ],400, {
color: 'red',
fillColor: '#f03',
fillOpacity: 0.5
}).addTo(testLayer);
realMarker.circle=circle;
map.addLayer(testLayer);
Then, when removing the marker, also remove its circle
testLayer.removeLayer(markerToRemove);
testLayer.removeLayer(markerToRemove.circle);
