Plathanus - Python Test for Jr Role

Welcome! First of all, fork This Repository to your Github Account.

After that git clone it to your machine.

Create a git branch using the name pattern test/<your-github-username> Do the developing on this branch.

Installation

Requires python >= 3.8

Create an virtual environment:

This tutorial snippets assumes you uses Linux. For installation on other OS check python documentation on venv.

python3 -m venv venv

Activate it:

source venv/bin/activate

Install pytest:

pip install pytest

That's it you are done! To run the tests run:

pytest

The goal of the test

One of our clients had an series of documents that may depend on others. He wants us to everytime he deletes an document all children documents are deleted as well. You've been designated to do this task. For this example, we're going to call the document as an Node. We're going to implement an Node class that will have an id and parent, and an NodeManager that will have an List of instance of the Nodes. This Manager will have the remove method that removes an single Node from the nodes member, and remove_cascade method that will removes all Nodes that has it as an parent, and all the Nodes that have been removed, must remove all Nodes that has it as an parent, and so on.

Hands ON

The requirements for the test are below. As you code, make sure that you run pytest to see your current progress. When all tests are passing, go ahead to the finishing part.

The Node class

Inside nodes/node.py you must write the Node class. Here are the requirements for an Node:

1. The Node class must declare the id and parent members. They Must be type hinted as integers.
2. An node parent cannot be greater than it's id. If this condition is not satisfied you should raise an ValueError exception;
3. An node parent cannot be the same as it's own id. If this condition is not satisfied you should raise an ValueError exception;
4. An Node should be instanced giving 2 integers like: Node(2, 1); If this condition is not satisfied you should raise an ValueError exception;
5. For debugging purposes we'll like that the Node representation is equals to the way we instance it. Done in the __repr__ method;

The NodeManager class

Inside nodes/manager.py you must write the NodeManager class. Here are the requirements for the NodeManager:

1. Each NodeManager must declare the nodes member. Must be type hinted as an List of Node.
2. It must receive an List of Node to be instanced, the nodes member should receive this List. If this condition is not satisfied you should raise an ValueError exception;
3. This object must not mutate the received List;
4. We should be able to see the number of nodes in the nodes member through the NodeManager instance. Done in the __len__ method.
5. We should be able to get an Node object from the nodes member through the NodeManager instance like an list. Done in the __getitem__ method
6. It must implement two methods remove and remove_cascade. They both receives an Node object to be removed from the nodes member and should return None.
7. The remove and remove_cascade method should raise an ValueError if the received Node does not exist on the nodes member.
8. The remove method must not remove its childrens.
9. The remove_cascade method should remove all Node from the nodes member that have the parent equal to the received Node, this action must be performed again on the granchildren of the removed Node. Example:

Given the List[Node] below:

[
    Node(1, 0),
    Node(2, 1),
    Node(3, 2),
    Node(4, 2),
    Node(5, 2),
    Node(6, 5),
    Node(7, 6),
    Node(8, 7),
    Node(9, 0),
]

If you call remove_cascade on the manager instance for the Node(2, 1) the nodes member must look like below:

[
    Node(1, 0),
    Node(9, 0),
]

This is expected because when we excluded the Node with id 2, the Nodes that has ids 3, 4, 5 as parent must be excluded, and the same is for the Node with id 6, that has the Node with 5 as parent and so on..

Finishing

After you finish, push your local branch to your github repository and create a pull request to our master branch.
