Users Database
The users database is generated in the db.js file. This file is used by the server to generate the database. It contains a list of users with their name, email and password, and other information.
Every time the server is restarted, the database is regenerated with different users and dummy data.
The users databse is tested using Chai and Mocha in the test folder.
To run all the tests, use the following command:
npm test
To run the tests for the users database, use the following command:
npm run test-db
To run the tests for the API endpoints, use the following command:
npm run test-api
Running the Server
To run the server, use the following command:
npm start
The server will be running on port 3000.
