Why are we doing this?

These challenges are designed to develop your problem-solving skills.

In this exercise you will build an app which displays famous quotes. It must meet the following criteria:

Acceptance criteria

  • Given a user visits the quote generator web page
    When the page loads
    Then a random quote from the quotes array should be displayed on the screen
    And the name of the person who said the quote should be displayed

  • Given a user is viewing a random quote on the quote generator page
    When the user clicks the 'New Quote' button
    Then a new random quote from the quotes array should be displayed on the screen
    And the name of the new quote's author should be displayed

  • Given a user is viewing a quote on the quote generator page
    When the user clicks the 'New Quote' button multiple times
    Then a different random quote from the quotes array should be displayed each time
    And the name of the new quote's author should be displayed each time
