This project is part of the Front-End Web Developer Nanodegree Program by Udacity.
Students are given a web-based application that reads RSS feeds. The original developer included Jasmine and started writing their first test. The task is to complete the test suite. Optionally, the student can use a more recent version of Jasmine.
Learn how to use Jasmine to write a number of tests against a pre-existing application. These will test the underlying business logic of the application as well as the event handling and DOM manipulation.
- Writing effective tests requires analyzing multiple aspects of an application including the HTML, CSS and JavaScript - an extremely important skill when changing teams or joining a new company.
- Good tests give you the ability to quickly analyze whether new code breaks an existing feature within your codebase, without having to manually test all of the functionality.
