Scenario

Flight search web application where you need to connect to a third party JSON service to retrieve airport codes & names and their availability.

Your application will work as a middle tier and cache some information in the sense that will persist data that is not very likely to change in a short/med period (like airport codes). This information can be saved in database or using a Non Relational Database (NRDMS).

• Scope of this is:

  • Retrieve airport codes and names
  • To be able to search for flight availability using external json api
  • Build backend JSON rest services
  • Build Frontend controllers and map model

• Out of scope:

  • Bookings

Should be deployed to heroku since the first commit

Code Correctness

Use rubocop ensure code is correctly wirtten. Rubocop rules should be provided.

Code Reviews

You should create a new branch for each task (issue) and create a PR and assign @dvarelap as reviewer.

Docs

Create docs.md where you put how to install, deploy and use your app.

Tests

I should be able to follow continous testing using CI/CD tools like SemaphoreCI, CircleCI, etc.

Expected Results

I should be able to search for a location and the start / end dates of my trip. The application should display real flight availability, you choose how (grouped vs non grouped, high vs low price etc).
