aircall.io - Frontend technical test
This test is a part of the hiring process at Aircall for frontend positions. More information about the test here.
The goal of this test was to make a ReactJS application displaying information about calls.
The app has two different components:
- Activity Feed - simple list of calls
- Activity Detail - detail of a call
We're using yarn here:
yarn install
yarn start
The app is now running on localhost:8081.
We're using jest. Some of the components and sagas have been tested. To run the tests:
yarn run test
To run the tests and collect code coverage information:
yarn run testCoverage
We're using eslint here:
yarn run lint
We're using storybook here:
yarn run storybook
The storybook stand alone app is now running on localhost:9001.
The application has been deployed on AWS. The dist/* files have been copied into a S3 bucket with the static website hosting property enabled. Visit the application here. You might have to install a CORS extension.
To produce the built files, run:
yarn run build
For now, the deployment has not been scripted, it's still a manual process.
The API is hosted on: https://aircall-job.herokuapp.com.
As you can see, it's hosted on a free Heroku server, which means that the first time you will fetch the API, it will take few seconds to answer.
After having archived a few calls, you might want to reset the activity list. Do so by calling this endpoint:
- GET - https://aircall-job.herokuapp.com/reset: Reset all calls to initial state
A few things are missing or could be improved:
- Setup styleguidist to build a stand alone components documentation app.
- Write a deployment script and use it at the end of the continuous integration pipeline.
- Handle errors by creating a dedicated reducer and displaying alerts
