This is the starter repo for the BE Mod1 DMV project.
- Describe the steps you took to dig in to this code base. What was your process? If you don’t feel you had a process, define one that you might like to try next time.
- I begin by revieiwing the project reading through all iterations so I can have a direction of where I am going. This helps clear up any confusion of what the objective is. I then always begin with test and review them to see if and when I shoud split them up in different describe blocks. I go line for line and pass every test although sometimes I will look ahead to try and set myself up to create a more effecient method for my tests.
-
What was hard about working with code you did not write?
- The hardest part was trouble shooting but I find this helpuful to experience. This allows me to be familiar with failures and errors and how I can correct them.
-
What was easier than you expected about jumping in to an unfamiliar codebase? What made it easy? If nothing felt easy, what would’ve helped you feel more comfortable more quickly?
- What was hard in the begining was changing the variables especially if they were in a hash. What was easy was the information given to us and once I was done with the first database at the end of iteration 2 it was easy to follow those steps to work through iteration 3. I am not to familiar with JSON but when I reached out to my peers for assistance it ran smoothly afterwarrds.
