This was my first time implementing random tests in a kata so I used another reputable author's kata as reference to avoid messing things up.
Basically, it will compare the output from the user's solution against the output from the kata author's solution, using the same randomly generated input value. Perhaps someone with more knowledge/experience can provide a better answer.
Thanks you guys! It's nice to have this finished finally!
Just curious about the random tests: if they expect the output of the function, what purpose do they serve? Isn't it like saying expectEqual(1, 1) or am I missing something?
After some more additional tests for consistency, the author's recent updates to the kata appear fine and it's now graduated from beta.
@mimshwright: Though I tested with several additional tests, I added only two extra test cases to the kata. Also, a correction was made to the kata description where one example showed an incorrect result.
@smile67: Unfortunately it appears your solution has been invalidated, but a minor adjustment should make it valid once again.
N.B.: Though I'm in agreement with @smile67 in regards to approving katas that have invalidated a considerable portion of its users' submitted solutions, I've made an exception in this case after reviewing the kata details and running additional tests to check for consistency.
Update: I've added 10 additional random tests for good measure.
.
Usually, an user with 4000 or more honor, can approve/reject a translation. The kata author can approve/reject a translation too, regardless of honor.
will try it tomorrow.. BTW thanks for pointing out. :)
If you want to go one level further, try this :D (your feedback on whether it's duplicate or not would be helpful there)
Interesting one :)
Hi,
fourteen(the classic typo)cheers
I think you need to add specification for infinity - you said the input will be <2 Quadrillion but infinity exceeds this limit.
It looks even scarier now, with all these zeros :P
Good catch! I fixed it.
Counting in English one, two, three... to 2 Quadrillion (2,000,000,000,000)
What you wrote is 2 Trillion and not 2 Quadrillion

So now it's possible to approve the kata, but with only one or two valid solutions it's my personal issue to approve it;-)...
Right. Based on feedback I changed one of the tests so now all the old ones from years ago are invalid. :*(
