Library Management

Project for COMP 5104/CSI 5134

Description

A microservices based application that allows users to manage a library. It consists of the following services:

1. inventory-svc The service that manages inventory of books
2. user-svc User management service which also does the authentication/authorization
3. card-svc Service to allow users to order physical library cards (WIP)
4. reservation-svc Service that manages user reservations
5. notification-svc Microservice that reports any reservations that are due soon
6. nginx-prox Nginx reverse proxy that acts as the gateway for clients running outside the cluster

Testing

Two approaches have been explored as part of testing:

1. Cucumber based acceptance tests based on RAATA (Reusable Automated Acceptance Testing Architecture)
2. Dynamically generated test cases using FPTS (Framework for Performance Test Specification)
