This repository contains challenges for you to undertake around Object-Oriented programming in Java. You can work on these challenges individually or in a pair.
(The instructions below assume you have got your laptop setup ready for running Java applications as per the pre-journey)
To get started you should "fork" this repository into your own Git account and the clone down to your machine.
Once cloned you can run the tests by running:
mvn test
You'll see that all the tests are currently failing.
Your job is to one by one fix the failing tests.
If you are working in a pair, we recommend working on one person's machine during pairing, but once your session has ended send over the code to your pair so that you both have a copy.
The objects you'll be working with are all types of Cat
Here's some facts about Cats....
By definition the blueprint for ALL cats is that they can do the following things:
* Eat
* Sleep
* Run
They ALL have the following attributes
* A piece of data that says whether they are asleep or not
* An average height represented in centimetres
* A piece of data that indicates their setting such as "domestic" or "wild"
* ALL cats go to sleep exactly the same way
After a cat has eaten its food their reaction tends to differ between species
* A Lion will let out a victorious roar
* A cheetah will let out a snoring sound as it becomes tired following a chase
* A domestic cat tends to let our a purring sound
As a bonus exercise some domestic cats will randomly let out a dismissive "It will do I suppose" comment following eating.
We've created the Cat interface to get you started
