Superheroes and supervillains are always battling it out, but how do we know who wins? This repo contains an API that gives us that answer. The API contains a /battle endpoint which takes a hero and a villain and returns the character that wins.
The characters and their stats are stored in a json file stored in AWS S3 - https://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/build-circle/characters.json
Our BattleController pulls the json file from S3 and works out the winner by comparing the scores from the json.
Have a look at the /battle endpoint. How would you make this better?
How would you improve the tests in ./Superheroes.Tests/BattleTests.cs?
Some superheroes are particularly weak against certain supervillains. If a hero has a villain specifed in their weakness field then they have 1 point knocked off their score when fighting that villain. This can affect the outcome of the battle.
Change the /battle endpoint to support this functionality.
Superheroes can obviously only fight supervillains and vice versa. Add some validation to make sure this cannot happen.
Run the application.
- Should return Joker - http://localhost:5000/battle?hero=Batman&villain=Joker
- Should return Superman - http://localhost:5000/battle?hero=Superman&villain=Lex%20Luthor
