I want to remove a css class before adding a new class to an element. If I know which exact class the element has already, I can remove that by

$('#test').removeClass('current_class').addClass('new_class');

But the problem is that #test does not have always same class. So I would like to remove any css class attached attached to #test before adding before adding a new one. How should I do that?
Thanks.
