Programming Test

This is a dummy application to be used as part of a software development interview.

Instructions

• Treat this code as if you owned this application, do whatever you feel is necessary to make this your own.
• There are several deliberate design, code quality and test issues that should be identified and resolved.
• The current features supported by the application are listed below; as well as some additional features that have been requested by the business owner.
• Refactor and add features (from the below list) as you see fit; there is no need to add all the features in order to "complete" the exercise. Keep in mind that code quality is the critical measure and there should be an obvious focus on testing.
• In order to work on this take a fork into your own GitHub area; make whatever changes you feel are necessary and when you are satisfied submit back via a pull request. See details on GitHub's Fork & Pull model.
• Python 3 has been used with a single dependency of nose for tests.
• You'll notice there is no database or UI; these are not needed - the exercise deliberately avoids these requirements.
• REMEMBER: this is YOUR code, made any changes you feel are necessary.
• You're welcome to spend as much time as you like; however it's anticipated that this should take about 2 hours.
