doubleblind-server's Introduction

How it works

New Experiment is received

Create Experiment
- Experiment has between 2-4 options
- Experiment may have 0-1 votes (if the creator already voted)
- Experiment has an end date/time

Experiment is shared with someone

Creator enters a person's email address
Add the person as a Participant (?) on the Experiment
- Experiments can't close until all Participants have completed
Send an email to the Participant

Participant votes

Participant uses link to create a session.
- There are no accounts (usernames/passwords) but all Experiments are forever associated with a set of Persons
Particpant chooses one of the 2-4 options
Participant can't see the outcome until Experiment closes
- All Ps have voted, or E time has passed

Experiment ends

All Participants have voted
Experiment end time has passed
Calculate the outcome
- If an option has received the most votes, it wins
- In the event of a tie, flip a coin!
Notify everyone

Figure out the full list of tasks

Start testing the models

Background

Part of the reason for writing the sql connection pooling as an injected dependency is so that I can mock up and test.

To-do

Create the mock data
Write the test cases on the models

Experiment.All needs to include Options (and Participants)

Context

At the moment Experiment.All() just returns the actual experiment data. It can only fill out some of the Experiment type, and isn't good enough for the final app. It needs to be completely fleshed out.
