Write some Software

Details:

We have different types of JSON structure. So for our case we will use 2 Types.

Types:

- Person

- Place

Each type has two JSON files:

- Actual JSON

- Expected JSON

Fields:

Each JSON has different field types, here are the types of fields (same for each TYPE of JSON):

- GUID

- String

- Unique String

- Integer

- Time Stamp

- Decimal

- Boolean

Task:

You have to design a method to compare the two JSON (based on their type e.g. person or place) by taking in the following parameters

Compare (String Expected, String Actual, Object Exceptions, String Type) {

Return a list of failures;

}

Object exception is basically a chunk of JSON that the can be provided, in which case those fields (provided in the chunk) will be compared between Actual-Exceptions and not Actual-Expected. The rest of the fields will still be compared to Expected. The method should take in Exceptions = null by default.

The comparing method should be smart enough to run a comparison based on the field type, it should follow these rules:

- If the field is a string simply do a string comparison

- If the field is a GUID just verify if it’s a GUID, no equality check is needed

- If the field is a unique string just verify its length, no equality check is needed

- If the field is an integer simply do a comparison

- If the field is a timestamp, just check to see if it’s a timestamp and has the right format

- If the field is a decimal just do a simple comparison

- If the field is a Boolean just do a simple comparison

The comparing method should also be smart enough to accommodate easily to a change in the structure of a particular type e.g. person, place.

Adding new types of JSON files with new structures should be simple enough to code as well for later stages.

I will post the sample json files and field mappings later.
