What's Cookin'

Contributors

Abstract

What's Cookin' is a recipe website created with a focus on Test Driven Design, multi-class integration, wireframing, and responsive layout. Tests were written and passed before any class integration or DOM manipulation was instituted for each class. While TDD was overall successful, end of sprint time crunches brought about class refactoring and tweaking before tests were rewritten, causing test failures that would need to be remedied after the class was finalized. Wireframing, while minimal, proved helpful in expediting initial site creation. As the project developed further it became clear that a more in depth wireframe is critical for site design ease and speed of implementation. Responsive layout, much like wireframing, was an aspect that began with minimal work focused on it but quickly became an obvious point for initial planning on future projects, as much of the initial design had to be tweaked or reworked to best fit desired responsiveness. Overall the creation of this project, while not complete, has taught invaluable lessons on the importance of framework, TDD, communication, and thorough project planning.
