Week 6 (10/1 - 10/8):

• Met with group for group programming, where we all worked on a feature together so that we could learn how the architecture works
• In the process of implementing a library that will reset the database after each unit test 2d4c99c, 5db4d73, 92fb063, d2f270f . I'm running into many problems with this. I believe it may be due to the use of async functions, which are causing unpredictable behavior (tests sometimes passing and sometimes failing). My future plan for this is to try to change the async functions to synchronous functions, so that I will be able to easier debug any problems.
