Introduction
We're refactoring the grades_controller.rb in Expertiza, enhancing its codebase to adhere to DRY and design principles, improving readability, and reducing redundancy. Our focus includes thorough rswag testing of the grades_controller method and demonstrating Swagger UI integration.
Problem Statement
The reimplementation project entails:
- Refactoring Grades Controller: Enhancing code clarity, optimizing loops, and adding comments for unclear lines of code to improve maintainability and readability.
- Removing Redundant Methods: Identifying and eliminating unused methods in the controller to reduce complexity and streamline functionality.
- CRUD Operations: Implementing CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) in the controller for efficient data management.
- Adherence to DRY Principle: Ensuring that the reimplementation follows the Don't Repeat Yourself (DRY) principle to avoid duplication and improve code efficiency.
- Testing with RSwag: Writing comprehensive tests using RSwag for each controller method to ensure functionality and integration with Swagger UI, followed by a video demonstration showcasing the Swagger UI integration and functionality of the reimplemented controller.
