10 Object-Oriented Programming: Team Profile Generator
This is a Node.js command-line application that takes in information about employees on a software engineering team, then generates an HTML webpage that displays summaries for each person. A unit test was written for every part of the code and ensure that it passes each test.

AS A manager
I WANT to generate a webpage that displays my team's basic info
SO THAT I have quick access to their emails and GitHub profiles
The following image shows a mock-up of the generated HTML’s appearance and functionality. HTML webpage titled “My Team” features five boxes listing employee names, titles, and other key info

GIVEN a command-line application that accepts user input
WHEN I am prompted for my team members and their information
THEN an HTML file is generated that displays a nicely formatted team roster based on user input
WHEN I click on an email address in the HTML
THEN my default email program opens and populates the TO field of the email with the address
WHEN I click on the GitHub username
THEN that GitHub profile opens in a new tab
WHEN I start the application
THEN I am prompted to enter the team manager’s name, employee ID, email address, and office number
WHEN I enter the team manager’s name, employee ID, email address, and office number
THEN I am presented with a menu with the option to add an engineer or an intern or to finish building my team
WHEN I select the engineer option
THEN I am prompted to enter the engineer’s name, ID, email, and GitHub username, and I am taken back to the menu
WHEN I select the intern option
THEN I am prompted to enter the intern’s name, ID, email, and school, and I am taken back to the menu
WHEN I decide to finish building my team
THEN I exit the application, and the HTML is generated
Open terminal window after fork. npm init -y to create a package.son file to store your dependenices.
npm i to install your NPM package manager and required dependencies.
npm i inquirer to interact with the user via the command-line.
npm i figlet to implement FIGfont spec in Javascript.
npm i chalk for terminal string styling of Logo.
npm i Jest for running user tests for command prompts.
Invoke the application by using the following command: node index.js
With the application invoked, you’ll be prompted to answer a series of questions from the command line to generate a Team Profile for your project.
Each question will pertain to a specific Team Member's Profile you’re creating. Answer each prompt for Manager, Engineer, Intern, Employee.
Hit Enter after answering each question to continue to the next prompt. When all the prompts are completed, you will receive an alert Team Profile Generator Complete.
A sample.html file will automatically generate inside the explorer window of your project directory within the sample folder.
Your sample.html should contain a similar structure as the [#mock-up] shown above with a header displaying my team and four individual cards for each employee.
Each employee card will have a name, role, & email. Engineer cards will include a github username. Intern cards will display the school which they are currently attending.
Please feel free to make changes to the styling or employee roles as needed, but do not make changes to the html file structure or javascript files unless you’d like to make a contribution.

The application includes Employee, Manager, Engineer, and Intern classes.
Employee parent class with the following properties and methods:
name, id, email, getName(), getId(),getEmail()
getRole()—returns 'Employee'
The other three classes extend Employee.
Employee’s properties and methods, Manager have the following:
officeNumber
getRole()—overridden to return 'Manager'
Employee’s properties and methods, Engineer have the following:
github—GitHub username
getGithub()
getRole()—overridden to return 'Engineer'
Employee’s properties and methods, Intern have the following:
school
getSchool()
getRole()—overridden to return 'Intern'
Using the Jest package for a suite of unit tests.
The following tests for Employee, Manager, Engineer, and Intern classes (in the _tests_ directory) ALL pass.
Manager Test:
test("Set Office Number from constructor", () => {
const testValue = 0;
const emp = new Manager("Johnny", 0, "johnny@fmail.com", testValue);
expect(emp.officeNumber).toBe(testValue);
});
Engineer Test:
test("Set GitHub Account from constructor", () => {
const testValue = "GitHub"
const emp = new Engineer("Bobby", 4, "https://github.com/fgithubaccount", testValue);
expect(emp.github).toBe(testValue);
});
Employee Test:
test("new Employee created", () => {
const emp = new Employee();
expect(typeof(emp)).toBe("object");
});
Intern Test:
test("get school from constructor", () => {
const testValue = "The Ohio State University";
const emp = new Intern("Ali", 4, "ali@fmail.com", testValue);
});
