About

notes-js is a front-end web app built using pure JavaScript, HTML and CSS with no external libraries (not even testing libraries; see Homemade Testing Library below). This project was developed over a week of afternoons

We communicate with an external API using fetch to support emoji short codes (e.g. :fire: -> 🔥).

This app follows the Model-View-Controller pattern.

Homemade Testing Library

We built our own basic testing library based on Jest. This includes describe, it, and expect functions along with toBe, toBeInstanceOf and toThrowError matchers. We also created a rudimentary spyOn function which overwrites a given method with a spy method, allowing use of the toHaveBeenCalledWithArguments matcher.

The describe and it functions log their text to the console, and the expect matchers log Pass or Fail.

See the files in /spec/helpers for the implementation of these functions, and see the spec files in /spec for our usage. SpecRunner.html runs all tests.
