Code Test

Preface:

You're allowed to google, read the docs, use whatever editor you like, and install gems to accomplish things. Feel free to ask questions.

Things to keep in mind:

1. You need not complete the whole task list in the hour provided. The list is a series of tasks which increase in difficulty as you progress.
2. Think about the minimal amount of code needed to complete the requirements. While this isn't a Golf exercise, it also isn't an exercise in demonstrating production quality error handling.
3. Ask questions. Read the Docs. We're here so I can see how you learn, not what you have memorized.
4. The atypical components have excellent documentation linked below.
5. Try not to let scope creep dominate just because certain things might be bad practice in a production app. It is important to complete the tasks, not build a perfect production-quality app.

Application:

We've built out a buggy User registration system out of the following components:

• Sinatra is being used to serve requests.
• ORM is Sequel.
• Database is sqlite, currently operating in memory only.

Necessary Background:

Sinatra is a minimalist ruby web framework. It does not have any builtin code-reloading mechanism like rails does. Any time you change a ruby file, the server must be restarted manually. Thankfully, Sinatra also boots in a fraction of the time it often takes rails.

Task list:

1. Clone this repository to the pairing station.
2. Poke around, exercise the app. See how it behaves. Look for bugs.
3. Write tests around current functionality (See /test or /spec depending on your minitest vs. rspec preference).
4. Make Sequel persist data across launches by writing to a sqlite file.
5. Use Sinatra sessions to allow a user to sign in and out (write tests).
6. Create an endpoint which renders the currently logged in user object in JSON, to be consumed by a third party app.
7. Rewrite to store and verify encrypted passwords instead of plain text.
