This interative flash cards application allows users to test their knowledge of Javascript's array prototype methods using the command line interface. Users can view multiple-choice questions, submit guesses, and receive feedback for each guess. When the 30-question deck is complete, a message shows the final score and how long it took to complete the round.
- Javascript
- Mocha and Chai for test driven development
- MAC Terminal for testing
- Clone this repo to your local machine: FlashCards
- In the terminal, navigate using
cdinto the repo's root directory. - Run
npm installto install testing dependencies. - Run
node index.jsto start the program. You will see a welcome message and the first question appears.
- Use keyboard arrow keys to select an answer and press return to submit. You will receive feedback.
- Press return for the next question prompt.
- Continue until you receive your final score.
- Repeat until you master the subject!

Completed over three days during the beginning of module 2 at the Turing School. Goals for this project included:
- Implement a robust testing suite using TDD by writing tests for the first time
- Contribute code to an partially constructed object-oriented application
- Write modular, reusable code that follows Single Responsibility Principle
This was my first project completed using Test Driven Development as the guiding model. Building this application helped solidify my knowledge of this methodology and exposed me to new Mocha/Chai functionality. I'm now familiar with both the expect and assert Chai assertion APIs, and with using Mocha's beforeEach method to reduce repetitive test setup. This project also furthered my understanding of Javascript class-to-class interaction, as the app was built using a series of dependent classes and methods.
