Comprehension Questions

Question Answer
Describe a custom model method you wrote. .top_one for work - this method returned the Work with the highest number of votes. In case of a tie, it returned the vote that came earliest alphabetically.
Describe how you approached testing that model method. What edge cases did you come up with? For my nominal case, I created loops which would vote a certain number of times on a single Work. I'd then check to see if this Work was the top_one. I also made sure a work with no votes amongst a set of Works with votes would come last, if there were only ten works. Edge cases: I tested the alphabetical sort if there was a tie and mode sure it returned nil if there was no Works.
What are session and flash? What is the difference between them? Both are hashes that keep track of temporary data. Session usually tracks information about a user, and persists over multiple requests - until the browser is closed and/or the history/cache are cleared. flash persists for just one request cycle.
What was one thing that you gained more clarity on through this assignment? I gained lots of clarity on how websites might store temporary information to make the site more dynamic.
What is the Heroku URL of your deployed application? https://lux-mediaranker.herokuapp.com/

Functional Requirements: Manual Testing

Criteria yes/no
Before logging in --
1. On index page, there are at most 10 pieces of media on three lists, and a Media Spotlight ✔️
2. Can go into a work's show page ✔️
3. Verify unable to vote on a work, and get a flash message ✔️
4. Can edit this work successfully, and get a flash message ✔️
5. Can go to "View all media" page and see three lists of works, sorted by vote ✔️
6. Verify unable to create a new work when the form is empty, and details about the validation errors are visible to the user through a flash message ✔️
7. Can create a new work successfully. Note the URL for this work's show page ✔️
8. Can delete this work successfully ✔️
9. Going back to the URL of this deleted work's show page produces a 404 or some redirect behavior (and does not try to produce a broken view) ✔️
10. Verify that the "View all users" page lists no users ✔️
Log in --
11. Logging in with a valid name changes the UI to "Logged in as" and "Logout" buttons ✔️
12. Your username is listed in "View all users" page ✔️
13. Verify that number of votes determines the Media Spotlight ✔️
14. Voting on several different pieces of media affects the "Votes" tables shown in the work's show page and the user's show page ✔️
15. Voting on the same work twice produces an error and flash message, and there is no extra vote ✔️
Log out --
16. Logging out showed a flash message and changed the UI ✔️
17. Logging in as a new user creates a new user ✔️
18. Logging in as an already existing user has a specific flash message ✔️

Major Learning Goals/Code Review

Criteria yes/no
1. Sees the full development cycle including deployment, and the app is deployed to Heroku ✔️
2. Practices full-stack development and fulfilling story requirements: the styling, look, and feel of the app is similar to the original Media Ranker ✔️ stylin!
3. Practices git with at least 25 small commits and meaningful commit messages ✔️

Previous Rails learning, Building Complex Model Logic, DRYing up Rails Code

Criteria yes/no
4. Routes file uses resources for works ✔️
5. Routes file shows intention in limiting routes for voting, log-in functionality, and users ✔️
6. The homepage view, all media view, and new works view use semantic HTML ✔️
7. The homepage view, all media view, and new works view use partials when appropriate ✔️
8. The model for media (likely named work.rb) has_many votes ✔️
9. The model for media has methods to describe business logic, specifically for top ten and top media, possibly also for getting works by some category ✔️
10. Some controller, likely the ApplicationController, has a controller filter for finding a logged in user ✔️
11. Some controller, likely the WorksController, has a controller filter for finding a work ✔️
12. The WorksController uses strong params ✔️
13. The WorksController's code style is clean, and focused on working with requests, responses, params, session, flash ✔️

Testing Rails Apps

Criteria yes/no
14. There are valid fixtures files used for users, votes, and works ✔️
15. User model has tests with sections on validations (valid and invalid) and relationships (has votes) ✔️
16. Vote model has tests with sections on validations (valid and invalid) and relationships (belongs to a user, belongs to a vote) ✔️
17. Work model has tests with sections on validations (valid and invalid) and relationships (has votes) ✔️
18. Work model has tests with a section on all business logic methods in the model, including their edge cases ✔️

Overall Feedback

Great work on this project! It is clear that the learning goals including using test fixtures, implementing login and using controller filters were met. Your code is clean, well tested, and makes great use of helper methods. I've left a few in-line comments for you to review. As always, let me know if you have any questions. Keep up the hard work!

Overall Feedback Criteria yes/no
Green (Meets/Exceeds Standards) 14+ in Functional Requirements: Manual Testing && 14+ in Code Review ✔️
Yellow (Approaches Standards) 12+ in Functional Requirements: Manual Testing && 11+ in Code Review, or the instructor judges that this project needs special attention
Red (Not at Standard) 0-10 in Code Review or 0-11 in Functional Reqs, or assignment is breaking/doesn’t run with less than 5 minutes of debugging, or the instructor judges that this project needs special attention

Wow, these are quite thorough. Consider whether you need all of them.

Good use of a loop and custom model method to DRY up this code.
