Challenge Description

Application

The application for this challenge is the Restful Booker Platform. More about the application is available here. You can also ask questions related to the application there.

The Challenges:

Complete these challenges using any tooling of your choice.

  1. Create a JSON file that could be used to mimic the response of the Report API. That JSON file should contain 1000 valid entries.
  2. Create a library/package etc that can return random valid data for all the models in Restful Booker Platform. For example, if my automated checks I want to abstract all my data into the library so I can do things like user.username, user.password, user.telephone.

Tip. Random valid data is what we are after for challenge 2.

Gwen Diagram is a technology professional from Leeds who specialises in testing.  She is an avid automation evangelist with a focus on testing complemented by repeatable build processes with monitoring. She has had varied roles throughout her career including Scrum Master at a Start Up, Engineering Manager at a bank and DevOps kid at a large Financial Services organisation. She is currently the Head of Engineering at Glean in Leeds.

Outside of work, you will usually find her hanging around a Natural History Museum somewhere in the world marvelling at how incredibly excellent dinosaurs are, feeding pigeons or ducks or obsessing over transport.
