Testing Your Code

Submitting On Time

You have to understand that "grades" don't exist at Marcy. We only need performance data in order to know how you're doing, and make sure the people who need help get it as quickly as they can. It's ok if you didn't finish by the deadline! Just show us what you have. We'll have office hours and reviews, and we want to know what you are all struggling with so we can use those meetings effectively. This is not about grades, its about seeing what you know, and where we can help!

playground.js

The most straightforward way to test your code is to test your code by hand as you work. Invoke your functions and use console.log() to print out the results. Then, cd into the src/ directory and use the node <file_name> command to run your JavaScript files.

You can also create what's called a "playground" (or "sandbox") file where you import any code you need, and then mess around with that file. We've included one in the src directory so you can see it. Run that program using node src/playground.js.

npm test

Before submitting your code, make sure you got things right by running the provided automated tests.

You can do this using the commands:

npm test # run the automated tests
npm run test:w # run the automated tests and rerun them each time you save a change

You will know that you have "completed" an assignment once you have passed 75% or more of the automated tests!
