About the Test

This project is a simple Rails app intended to help you demonstrate:

Fundamental Ruby programming skills
Familiarity with the Ruby-on-Rails framework
Problem-solving abilities
Ability to use the Git version control system

Your goal is to add functionality and fix bugs so that the app's RSpec test suite and JS test suite pass. Please do not spend more than four hours on this project; we do not necessarily expect candidates to solve every test. We want to see how you approach this set of problems.

Prerequisites

Completing this project requires you to have access to a Ruby development environment in which you are able to install dependencies using Bundler.
If you don't have access to a Unix-based development environment (such as macOS or Linux), you can use a browser-based IDE such as Cloud9.
If you have access to a Windows development environment, you should be able to use RubyInstaller to run the app, but that has not yet been tested. If you are able to set this up, please let us know. Pull requests welcome!
You will need to install yarn in order to run JS tests. You can find setup instructions here.
You will need Ruby 2.6.8 installed. You should consider using a ruby version manager like rbenv

Setup Steps

Download a copy of the dev-test from this URL: https://github.com/network-for-good/dev-test/archive/main.zip. We don't recommend cloning the dev-test repository, because you will be delivering your solution as a private repository pull request (see Delivery Instructions, below).
Run the bin/setup command to install the app's dependencies and prepare the application's SQLite database.
Run the command yarn install to install JS dependencies.
Run the command rspec to exercise the Ruby test suite. You should see a list of test failures.
Run the command yarn test to exercise the JS test suite.

Development

Add and change Ruby code to make the test suite pass successfully by running rspec. You should not need to make any changes to the specs.
The application views use Bonterra's design system, NFG UI. You may want to refer to NFG UI's documentation site.
You may see warning messages related to the NFG UI gem, such as warning: already initialized constant NfgUi::Components::Utilities::ResourceThemeable::FALLBACK_ICO. These warnings may be safely disregarded.
When complete, you will see a success message such as: 15 examples, 0 failures.
Add and change JS code to make the test suite pass successfully by running yarn test. Update the two JS tests with 'fail('Todo')' with tests that verify the action described in the description of the test.
When complete, you will see a success message such as: Tests: 8 passed, 8 total

Front-End Development

Visit the elements/html_test page locally to view the questions. Add and change the HAML code to answer the questions. You should not need to make any changes to CSS.
Please provide your answers within that file.

Delivery Instructions

Solutions should be delivered via GitHub, since Bonterra uses GitHub for source control. Part of our assessment includes evaluating your ability to use Git branches and pull requests. Once your solution is complete:

Create a private GitHub repository within your personal GitHub account. You should suffix the repository name with your GitHub user name. For example, if @subelsky delivers an solution, the private repository would be named dev-test-subelsky. Refer to these instructions to ensure your solution is private.
Create a branch within your private repository called solution. For example, the solution delivered by @subelsky appears here: https://github.com/subelsky/dev-test-subelsky/tree/solution. (Note: this example is a public repository, but your solution should be private).
Create a pull request that specifies the changes you wish to merge from the solution branch into the main branch. In our example, @subelsky delivered a (simulated) solution: subelsky/dev-test-subelsky#1.
Add the following GitHub accounts to your private repository as collaborators, so that we can see your pull request:

These steps mirror the code review process used by Bonterra.
