ContactsSimple

A simple Address book using https://randomuser.me/

Overall Approach

This project is a sample application on how to utilize RecyclerView and AbstractDataBinder to create reusable components. This project uses the Model-View-Presenter architecture which allows for the presenter to be unit-tested very easily. The project also uses GSON and a custom wrapped around okHttp to return responses that are Java objects instead of Strings.

Platform

The app is coded all in Java and using Gradle for building.

Features

• Ability to grab an array of 50 contacts from Random User
• Display a List of Contacts
• Display a page to show more details of contacts
• Travis Implemention with Unit Test.

The Future

• Add ability to call contacts, just like native address book.
• Ability to edit contact information
• Ability to add new contacts
• Add debug enviroment with data stubbing (for development purposes).

Increasing Robustness

• Increase modularity by moving things into separate repositories (ie Networking)
• Use Kotlin language to make code easier to read.
• Increase unit test / UI test coverage using Espresso and RoboElectric
