Hello Everyone!
What did you do this week?
This week I started working on writing tests. Tests are really important to software development. I read on about Pytest and concepts such as mocking. I had an idea of automating the process of clicking buttons, but I realised through the week that it wasn't going to be as easy as that. I had to make minor changes in my code to make it 'testable'. I could accomplish testing of KML Files parsing through lots of research and experimenting. I still have a long way to go!
What is coming up next?
This week will inevitably go into writing (better) tests, and increasing test coverage. I will do my best to provide tests for all the features that I've added in the past 2 months. There are certain other features that my mentor has asked me to modify in the KML Overlay. I will try working on them as well.
Did you get stuck anywhere?
Writing Tests is quite tough. There is a certain mindset to keep while writing them. For example, I wrote a test designed to throw up an error in the software;all this time I was trying not to cause an error haha.. This is another role , from the other side of the mirror, that I need to get a hang of.
Looking forward to an interesting week :))
