Unit 3 Chapter 1: Testing Overview

In this chapter, you will give yourself an overview of the test suite.

MiniTest vs. RSpec vs. Cucumber

Take note of whether the test suite is MiniTest, RSpec, Cucumber, or some combination.

Time Needed to Run Tests

How long does it take to run the test suite? You may need to work on speeding up the test suite.

Outlining

• Run the outline.sh script to generate block diagrams and outlines of your app in the log directory. These block diagrams and outlines allow you to see at a glance how the app is organized.
• If the outline.sh script fails for certain models, you'll have to fix them.

User Experience

• Run the app on the local server, and log into it as a user.
• Try out the app and familiarize yourself with what the user experiences.
