### Summary

As our final group project, we chose to clone codewars.com.  We were given 2 weeks to complete our project.  Codewars.com is a massive website with multiple aspects.  We focused solely on the purpose of codewars: **unit testing**.  This choice effected the content we showed in our views.  For instance, the home page now is a users dashboard, omitting the social aspect of the clans.  

**Project Challenges**
* Running tests in commandline and making sure the string being passed is valid commandline syntax.
* Receiving the response as a string and parsing the response in the correct format to pass through the service.
* Formatting the return object with the nested 'its', 'describes', & 'tests'.  These were often 4 deep depending on the tests being run.
* Implmentation of the codeMirror library and its full functionality.
* We made the effort to make this Clonewars pixel perfect.

## Docker & Unit tests

To run our unit test we are using Codewars Runner CLI [link] (https://github.com/Codewars/codewars-runner-cli).

We have docker installed and brought down codewars/base-runner & codewars/node-runner.. This allows us to run the code within a Docker image that protect our server from any unhealthy code that may be ran inside hopefully preventing anything from bringing down the server.

Codewars Runner uses the Mocha unit-testing framework so the test have been written in mocha. 

In node we are using exec to run a CLI to invoke docker and this image and then parsing the response into an object that allows the front-end to display with the describes and its correctly
