The Master Seach Telegram Bot

In this project, I built a Telegram Bot that can search on Wikipedia or get you 3 random Wikipedia articles. It also sends you random funny Gifs every time you write something else in the chat or you use the /start and /stop commands. The main goal is to make a massive use of external API`s by putting into practice the main concepts of Object Oriented Programming, classes, modules, objects and accessing their attributes.
The project is built using the TDD technique.

The Bot is live, you can check him here: Master Search Bot

You can see a short demo of the Bot /start command in the screenshot below.
