Implementing the parking lot Ruby. Please see PDF for specifications.
Go to the root directory of the project and run the following commands :
To install gem dependencies and run the entire testing suite. This new testing suite is an exhaustive test of the parking lot system, having 100% test coverage as verified by simplecov.
bin/setup
To run against the pre-written functional test
bin/run_functional_tests
Parking Lot supports a CLI interface to manually interact with the program. Run the following to open a CLI interface.
bin/parking_lot
Parking Lot also supports usage via an input file. It will parse the fill and output the result on console. Usage :
bin/parking_lot <input_file_location>
The basic theme and objective for this design was to make the different entities in the parking lot as abstract as possible. All entities represent the different real world entites which makeup a real world simplistic parking lot.
