Challenge for Node Server Testing Module

Server Testing Module Project

Instructions

Task 1: Set Up The Project With Git

Follow these steps to set up and work on your project:

• Create a forked copy of this project.
• Clone your OWN version of the repository (Not Lambda's by mistake!).
• Create a new branch: git checkout -b <firstName-lastName>.
• Implement the project on your newly created <firstName-lastName> branch, committing changes regularly.
• Push commits: git push -u origin <firstName-lastName>.

Task 2: Minimum Viable Product

For this project you will use Test Driven Development to create a RESTful API using Node.js and Express that publishes a set of endpoints to manage a resource of your choosing. Data can be stored in memory, adding a test database is optional.

Requirements

• use jest and supertest to write the tests.
• Your API must be able to create and delete a resource of your choosing.
• Write a minimum of two tests per route handler.

Task 3: Stretch Goals

The following goals are designed to stretch your knowledge and may require additional research beyond what was learned in class today.

• Add endpoints for viewing the details of the resource. Write tests for it.
• Add a testing database to the project and configure the testing script inside package.json to use the testing database. Hint: use cross-env npm package.
• Complete the rest of the CRUD operations and write tests for them.
• Add tests for your data access files (models).

Submission format

Follow these steps for completing your project.

• Submit a pull request to merge Branch into master (student's Repo). Please don't merge your own pull request
