  3. $ bundle install

  4. $ touch .env

  5. Add API key to .env file in the root directory in the following format:

export OMDB_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
  1. Run the test suite from the root directory with this command:
$ ruby ./suite/api_test.rb

Completed Tasks:

  1. Successfully made api requests to OMDb API from within tests in api_test.rb.

  2. Added an assertion to test_no_api_key to ensure the response at runtime matches what is currently displayed with the api key missing.

  3. Extended api_test.rb by creating a test that performs a search on 'thomas'.

  • Verified all titles are a relevant match.
  • Verified keys include Title, Year, imdbID, Type, and Poster for all records in the response.
  • Verified values are all of the correct object class.
  • Verified year matches correct format.

  1. Added a test that uses the i parameter to verify each title on page one is accessible via imdbID.

  2. Added a test that verifies none of the poster links on page one are broken.

  3. Added a test that verifies there are no duplicate records across the first five pages.

  4. Added a test that verifies something you are curious about with regard to movies or data in the database.
