Scheme Tracker
Scheme Tracker is designed to monitor the progress of schemes, which can be domestic (e.g. around the house such as Replacement of Kitchen Taps) or commercial (e.g. School having a new sports hall). Schemes can be created or edited as well as being viewed. It is an e-commerce site with products designed for various schemes (e.g. Flash Drive for IT Projects such as Documentary on Holidays and a new personal website, Fire Extinguisher for Sports Hall).
UX
Users can be individuals or businesses. Examples of individuals include students, artists and homeowners. Examples of businesses include London Borough of Bromley, Cambridgeshire County Council and Drax Power.
As a user, I want to edit a scheme in order to update my progress for example. If the completion is currently 30 and the building has been complete, but Health & Safety requirements have not been started, I would change it to 70. This is a rough estimate, as different businesses have different Health & Safety Requirements. For example, someone running a business from home may not need a Fire Extinguisher.
As a user, I want to get products for my scheme(s) in the place that I live in for my home or business or the site in which the works are to be carried out.
Help Text is provided where the fields do not look straightforward as they would be. For example in the completion field, the user may enter Not Complete. It should be a whole number as a percentage (e.g. 25 for partially complete or 100 for complete). A default (e.g. 0) has been provided in the completion field.
Wireframes are supplied in the wireframes folder. Documentation (narrative and presentation) is supplied in the documentation folder.
Links to my social media (e.g. LinkedIn) are provided.

Testing
Vary the width of the browser window. Use different browsers (e.g. Microsoft Edge, Safari).
Automated Testing was done using Travis-CI. Make sure requests==2.21 is in the requirements.txt. Also remove the import env statement in settings.py.
Credit Card Testing - Use the credit card number of 4242424242424242 and any security key. I do not use my own credit card for testing purposes.
Test with the stripe account that has not been activated and the message regarding unable to take payment appears.
External links (e.g. PDF) will open in a new tab using target="_blank". All links have been manually tested to ensure that they are pointing to the correct destination.
In the terminal window use the command
python3 manage.py test products

It will be deployed to Heroku. Make sure requirements.txt is up to date by using the command
pip3 freeze > requirements.txt
after adding new libraries (e.g. Stripe).
