Problems

Not sure for purpose or not but API sometimes caches a request for the next kata. To solve the problem go to the link http://www.codewars.com/dashboard in your browser.

Development

TO-DO

  • [ ] Refactor anything you can
  • [ ] Add travis, coveralls, etc
  • [ ] After codewars finalize show a link with the language of submission
  • [ ] Change the name of commands: attempt and finalize (join them to one command?)
  • [ ] Rename 'config' command? Maybe to 'set'?
  • [ ] Add options to commands that can be added: --strategy=something, --language=something, etc.
  • [ ] Make 100% coverage in simplecov
  • [ ] Write RSpec module tests
  • [ ] Divide description.md to task.md + info.yml?
  • [ ] Refactor features so stubbing (mocking) become more obvious
  • [ ] Make a bug report "Author's name in an API response is yours name"
