With the holidays being busy (for both students and coaches, I expect), I wasn't terribly concerned about the fact that Project 6 had been submitted back on December 18th, and as of the two week mark, I had not received an evaluation. I had taken a slight vacation from my nanodegree work after that submission.
Today, I received my evaluation on Project 6, and it was...
As I had posted here, this project was very similar in concept to unit testing I had learned for Java, but much easier to understand due to the syntax Jasmine uses. I added two additional tests that seemed to make sense for extending the usefulness of the feed reader. One of the tests works on the feed reader as is (assuming the page as presented is default), and one test which does not work, but could if additional functionality is added. The nonfunctional test is marked it as "pending" using Jasmine's pending() function. By marking this extra test as pending, the other tests can run, leaving the pending test as a yellow mark - rather than throwing red errors across the screen.
This leaves the rework for Project 4 and new work on Project 5 to be completed, in order to finish out the nanodegree projects. With this evaluation now under my belt (and holidays well past), I'm ready to get back into the Front End Development mindset.
