Media Ranker

Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment!

Comprehension Questions

Question Answer
Describe a custom model method you wrote. A spotlight method, which returns the most voted work to be displayed in the spotlight section.
Describe how you approached testing that model method. What edge cases did you come up with? I tested that the return of that method is in fact of type work, and that it correctly chooses the work with top votes.
What are session and flash? What is the difference between them? Session stores data while other requests are happening and keeps that information to be later used in other requests, where flash is a method that posts temporary messages to the user in response to certain actions.
What was one thing that you gained more clarity on through this assignment? Session and model testing.
What is the Heroku URL of your deployed application? https://halas-media-ranker.herokuapp.com/

Media Ranker

Functional Requirements: Manual Testing

Criteria yes/no
Before logging in --
1. On index page, there are at most 10 pieces of media on three lists, and a Media Spotlight ✔️
2. Can go into a work's show page ✔️
3. Verify unable to vote on a work, and get a flash message ✔️
4. Can edit this work successfully, and get a flash message ✔️
5. Can go to "View all media" page and see three lists of works, sorted by vote ✔️?
6. Verify unable to create a new work when the form is empty, and details about the validation errors are visible to the user through a flash message ✔️Something's a little funky with the styling/html, and I see the flash message in two places.
7. Can create a new work successfully. Note the URL for this work's show page ✔️?
8. Can delete this work successfully ✔️
9. Going back to the URL of this deleted work's show page produces a 404 or some redirect behavior (and does not try to produce a broken view) ✔️I like how you provide this flash message "Media page does not exist! Here's a list of all Media available!"
10. Verify that the "View all users" page lists no users ✔️
Log in --
11. Logging in with a valid name changes the UI to "Logged in as" and "Logout" buttons ✔️
12. Your username is listed in "View all users" page ✔️
13. Verify that number of votes determines the Media Spotlight ✔️
14. Voting on several different pieces of media affects the "Votes" tables shown in the work's show page and the user's show page ✔️
15. Voting on the same work twice produces an error and flash message, and there is no extra vote ✔️
Log out --
16. Logging out showed a flash message and changed the UI ✔️
17. Logging in as a new user creates a new user ✔️
18. Logging in as an already existing user has a specific flash message ✔️

Major Learning Goals/Code Review

Criteria yes/no
1. Sees the full development cycle including deployment, and the app is deployed to Heroku ✔️
2. Practices full-stack development and fulfilling story requirements: the styling, look, and feel of the app is similar to the original Media Ranker ✔️
3. Practices git with at least 25 small commits and meaningful commit messages ✔️It looks like some extra files were checked into git. Take a look at your gitignore file and make sure everything's there that you expect.

Previous Rails learning, Building Complex Model Logic, DRYing up Rails Code

Criteria yes/no
4. Routes file uses resources for works ✔️
5. Routes file shows intention in limiting routes for voting, log-in functionality, and users ✔️?
6. The homepage view, all media view, and new works view use semantic HTML ✔️
7. The homepage view, all media view, and new works view use partials when appropriate See in-line comments.
8. The model for media (likely named work.rb) has_many votes ✔️
9. The model for media has methods to describe business logic, specifically for top ten and top media, possibly also for getting works by some category ✔️
10. Some controller, likely the ApplicationController, has a controller filter for finding a logged in user ✔️
11. Some controller, likely the WorksController, has a controller filter for finding a work See in-line comment.
12. The WorksController uses strong params ✔️
13. The WorksController's code style is clean, and focused on working with requests, responses, params, session, flash ✔️

Testing Rails Apps

Criteria yes/no
14. There are valid fixtures files used for users, votes, and works ✔️
15. User model has tests with sections on validations (valid and invalid) and relationships (has votes) ✔️
16. Vote model has tests with sections on validations (valid and invalid) and relationships (belongs to a user, belongs to a vote) ✔️
17. Work model has tests with sections on validations (valid and invalid) and relationships (has votes) ✔️
18. Work model has tests with a section on all business logic methods in the model, including their edge cases ✔️

Great work on this assignment. Your code is clear and well written, and it is clear that the learning goals were met. Your models are very well tested. I've let a few in-line comments focused on ways you could DRY up your code with partial views and controller filters. Please let me know if you have any questions. Keep up the hard work!

You essentially have the same code repeated three times. Consider how you could use a partial view or a loop to DRY up this code.

<h3> Top Albums </h3>
<% Work.albums_list.each do |work| %>

As above, you essentially have the same code repeated 3 times. Consider how you may dry up this code, including modifying your model method to take the category as an argument.

Comment thread app/models/work.rb
return Work.all.max_by { |work| work.votes.count }
end

def self.movies_list

Consider how you could DRY up this code by using the category as an argument.

Note that you need to find a work in multiple actions. This would be great functionality to put into a controller filter.

Comment thread test/models/work_test.rb
expect(@spotlight_media).must_be_instance_of Work
expect(@works.max_by { |work| work.votes.count }).must_equal @spotlight_media

Consider including another test for what happens if two works are tied.

Comment thread test/models/vote_test.rb
end

describe "relationships" do
it "has relationships with Work and User" do

Consider breaking this into 2 tests since it is 2 different relationships.
