- This application consists of a front-end web page, an express server with RESTful routing and a mongo DB for data persistence (hosted by mlab.com)
- The front end consists largely of jQuery event listeners that make appropriate AJAX calls to the server
- The RESTful API consists of the following routes
- Users - Used for user sign up, sign in and validation: Routes - POST/validate, POST/signup, POST/signin, and DELETE/
- Portfolios - Used for holding and dealing with users portfolios: Routes - GET/all, GET/leaderboard, GET/, PUT/buy, and PUT/sell
- Stockstores - Used to hold an object containing each unique stock as key value pair for making our Yahoo API call: Routes - GET/, GET/:id, and POST/
- YahooAPI - Used for interfacing with the YahooAPI to return data to the front end and to update all portfolios: Routes - GET/dailyUpdate and GET/
- All delete routes require admin level authentication
- Portfolio routes require user authentication prior to access

Testing can be performed for our various database data models and end2end routes if npm is installed with the following two commands:

npm test:watch
The first command will perform all test at once using mocha. The second command will allow you retest your files as changes are made.
