Day 7/8 of 30 Min Project 12/22/14

December 22nd, 2014

Missed yesterday due to friends being in town and prepping for our annual holiday trip.

Tonight:

• gulp mocha isn’t finishing properly. I know I handled this somewhere :P
  • ahh, using exit and pipe the results to it
  • Hmm, test is timing out now :/
  • Not sure if it’s connectivity issues (on the road over hotspot) or if something else weird is going on
  • Local db isn’t being created, so it’s acting like it’s not even connecting to mongodb
  • Hmm, turned off the gulp-exit stuff and it finally shows the db call, so it is just timing out for some weird reason, putting a longer timeout
  • Yep, and it now exits properly in gulp :)
• Figure out how we’re going to manage our test data

  * Before I’ve created a setup script that deletes and adds new data to test with
  * going to do this for now, but long term want to get this abstracted out using machinist-js
  * pulling in a util that will create and delete test data
  * Hmm, something weird is happening now that I have that wired in to gulp, appears to not be starting server properly to run tests :/
  

  Next steps:
• Figure out why the startup isn’t happening on time now
• Get tests going that use test data
  • We have a few controllers/endpoints we need to test
    • /token - gets a valid token for a logged in user
    • /user - gets current user that is logged in via that token
