5 day weather forecast for Bangalore
This project will give you the weather Forecast of present day and next 4 days .
This is a Maven Project so to build the project we require maven installed on the system/IDE and then using command maven clean install will build the application. if you want skip Junit Test then we should use maven clean install -skiptests=true. once you build the application you will get war file. you can configure either to get jar in pom.xml by using a tag called maven packaging tag.
Even i have generated the java docs for this project and it is in doc folder.
Running the Project is very easy since we have got the war file you can just deploy this in tomcat and if you browse http://ip:port/index.html weather page will be rendered. if we convert this to jar file then using java -jar projectname.jar will start the micro services and no need of tomcat also.
We can use just the below link to see how the project UI looks.
Testing is done using TDD Approach and i have created Junit_Test_Class. This class validate in 3 Sceniarios 1) To check whether the system is having proper internet connection. 2) To check the Status code of the application with the valid Url and invalid Url.
- Since i was running short age of time i have just used css style sheet of the openweathermap site and embedded it.
- i have used directly the ajax call to fetch the data in real time it wont be like that we will be using one WebServer layer (Controller) to map the things and to fetch data this can be improved of had more time.
- if had more time i would have written more test cases scenario to validate the JSON Response type and other cases.
- if i had created the Rest webservice then i can test webservice is running or not using Fitnesse Tool that would have been achieved.
- Even deployment can be made automated if i would have used jenkins and shown some demo.
