This repository was made to help you improve your proficiency with Jest through a hands-on workshop. You'll tackle real-world coding challenges and learn to write comprehensive tests, robust and reliable code.

• Node.js
• Jest
• Jest-related dependencies in the project
  • Check package.json
• Run to install locally after cloning:

npm install

• users.js to implement functions that will be tested.
• data.js contains an array of user data.
• index.js is a file to be used in case you'd like to write custom functions.
• All test cases should be written inside tests/ directory.

• Develop a function in users.js to simulate fetching user data.
  • The function should accept a user ID.
  • Return a promise that resolved user data. You can mock this inside tests.
  • You can include error handling for cases where the ID is invalid or unavailable.

• Create a function to validate DNA strings as canonical DNA structure (e.g., 'CTAGGGTA').
  • Allow only canonical DNA bases ('C', 'T', 'A', 'G').
  • The function should be case-sensitive. Only accept uppercase bases.
  • Return empty string for invalid or empty inputs.
  • Return true if the string is a valid DNA sequence.

isValidDNA("CTAG"); // should return true
isValidDNA("CTXG"); // should return false due to 'X'
isValidDNA("ctag"); // should return false due to lowercase
isValidDNA(""); // should return false for empty string

• Implement a function to calculate the factorial of a number using recursion.
  • Ensure it handles edge cases: negative numbers or non-integer inputs.

For each tasks, develop a suite of tests inside the tests directory. Thoroughly validate functionality. Include positive and negative test cases to cover various scenarios and edge cases. This approach will ensure your functions behave as expected under different conditions
