Tax Hippocampoi is a company dedicated to great service in the city of Barranquilla; As the mighty Poseidon who was always traveling the seven seas on a carriage pulled by Hippokapoies, we want every customer to feel like a god with our outstanding service.
Currently, the company has multiple taxi stations around the city of Barranquilla, each one in a strategic location to cover the whole city and provide fast and efficient service. Each Station is operated by a single person, who registers each Taxi when they arrive, and dispatches a Service when a Passenger arrives according to their needs and the Taxi number in line.
Our biggest challenge is with some locations where Passengers require a large trunk for storing groceries or baggage from a trip, the Station Operator, needs to go Cab by Cab, asking who has a large trunk for Passengers with baggage, which takes a lot of time when there are dozens of taxis, and gives our customers an impression of bad service.
Our main goal for this project is to optimize the Response Time, Service Quality and overall experience for our customers. Being able to assign a Taxi Service to a customer according to their needs and keeping the Taxi Station Operator informed about the status of the Taxis available is the main reason for this project.
- The team must deliver a library, we only need the Logic to handle multiple taxis and multiple customers for a single taxi station
- The team must add a test directory with multiple tests of different situations
- The messages for the Station Operator must be en English
- The maximum amount of taxis per Taxi Station is 73
- When a customer needs a Taxi with a trunk, the system must find the first available taxi with a trunk and assign the * service, skipping the waiting line.
- When a new taxi arrives, it must be added to the waitlist
- The Station Operator must know the remaining amount of taxis after each Service Assignation
- When the Taxi Wait Line only has 10 Taxis, a message should be returned saying: “Please request more Taxis to this location”
