Look inside

You're a TypeScript developer at an organization that sells stock photography products to the general public, as well as to news and other media markets. The company wants to add functionality to its system that maximizes the profitability of any given search. It’s up to you to improve the test suite by adding high-quality requirements-based tests. You’ll use mocks to isolate requirements, ensuring that each test focuses on a single behavior in your code. When you’re done, you’ll have a more resilient codebase.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
