            • Implemented a very simple model with user, metrics and measurements tables unsing flask-sqlalchemy
            • Implemented the corresponding API resources using flask-restful with get, post, update and delete methods when applicable
            • Implemented token authentication using flask-jwt
            • Implemented a test client that instantiate the app with the testing configuration, create an empty database, add a test user, get the authentication token, execute the tests and tear down the testing setup
            • Testing the JSON data type on MySQL 5.7 by adding a data field in the measurements model

            Test client output example:

            $ coverage run --source=app test.py
            test_measurement (tests.tests.TestAPI) ... ok
            test_metric (tests.tests.TestAPI) ... ok
            test_user (tests.tests.TestAPI) ... ok
             
            ----------------------------------------------------------------------
            Ran 3 tests in 1.025s
             
            OK
