This is an educational public repository to illustrate the power of automated testing through Github Actions.

1. Set up Python virtual environment.

python -m venv venv

2. Install required dependencies.

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Run unit tests.

python -m pytest

4. Run the app.

python app.py

1. app.py: A flask application that exposes the following API endpoints:

• index at / : Retun a JSON data structure indicating the current balance.
• deposit at /deposit : Take the deposit amount as a URL parameter and return the new balance after adding the amount.
• withdraw at /withdraw : Take the withdrawal amount as a URL parameter and return the new balance after subtracting the amount. App relies on a global in-memory variable (balance) to store the balance of the account.

2. requirements.txt: A text file including all the Python libraries and packages needed to run the app.

3. .gitignore: Refer to the gitignore article for more details. In short, this file makes it possible that local configuration or binary files are not pushed to the repository.

4. tests: It's a directory that includes several unit tests for the APIs. The tests utilize the PyTest library.
