Description of Project

The project aims at reimplementing user controller.rb, user.rb and it's associated child classes. The project reimplementing functionalities specific to the above classes and write extensive rspec tests for the same.

Problem Statement

Background: Background: The User model is a key component of the Expertiza application, handling user data and authentication/authorization features. It is linked to other models such as Participant, TeamsUser, and Invitation, allowing for associations and a personalized user experience.

Reimplementation (What needs to be done): To set up the project, follow these instructions.

  • Reimplement the search_users, find_user methods in user.rb
  • Reimplement the role, paginate_list functionality in users_controller.rb
  • Instructor.rb
  • Write thorough RSpec tests for the newly implemented functionalities

Objectives

  • Reimplement methods pertaining to controller.rb, user.rb and it's associated child classes. More specifically reimplement search_users, find_user methods in user.rb.
  • Reimplement the role, paginate_list functionality in users_controller.rb.
  • Reimplement Instructor.rb.
  • Ensure proper naming of the methods, variables.
  • Incorporate suggestions from project3.
  • Ensure the PR checks are successfull and all test cases are passing.
  • Compose comprehensive RSpec tests for the changes done to ensure the robustness and reliability of the entire system.

Development Strategy

We have started the development activity using TDD approach. We start by creating test cases for the functionality in hand. Since it is reimplementation, the existing code and functionality makes it much easier to select comprehensive test cases. This is followed by writing clean and simple code to pass the test cases. We are also incorporating comments we received as part of project 3. We identified few more places where naming could be better and we will be incorporating the suggested changes in the reimplementation project.

Implementation

We started by looking at the existing implementation thoroughly. We drafted test cases for these implementations. This would be followed by adding code to address failing test cases. Our goal is to ensure that any code written follows the design principles and facilitate readability and maintainability of the code.
