Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment!

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Describe a custom model method you wrote.	I wrote a method that sorted the work records according to their vote count, but ended up not using it.
Describe how you approached testing that model method. What edge cases did you come up with?	I did not test this method. What I should have done was to test how the method handled the situation with no records. Also if the sorting was done correctly. I did not do well with the test this time around. There were some tests that I did not get to work. Maybe due to that I used sessions in the actions.
Describe an edge case test you wrote for a controller	For books movies and albums I checked that the path was responding successfully when there were no records.
What are session and flash? What is the difference between them?	session stores data that can be used through different calls. flash does only keep data till it has been "used" once (rendered to the browser)
Describe a controller filter you wrote.	I did not use a controller filter.
What was one thing that you gained more clarity on through this assignment?	Again the routes is somewhat diffuse for me. But I am getting there : )
What is the Heroku URL of your deployed application	https://media-ranker-amb.herokuapp.com/
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?	This project was truly a challenge, but good. The first wave took me three days.
