December 2024 performance for csci-499-fa24/trip-trends: Delivered robust Plaid integration capabilities and reliability improvements. Implemented a Plaid integration testing framework with mocks and introduced a mock PlaidApi to enable isolated tests for expense transfers, link token flows, public token exchanges, and transaction retrieval, including error scenarios. Enhanced Plaid UX by ensuring expense suggestions display only for accounts with valid access tokens, added an unlink option, and improved error handling and logs. Fixed date formatting in fetchTransactions to ensure correct API calls. These changes reduce dependency on live Plaid calls, improve test coverage, and provide clearer feedback to users. Technologies demonstrated include mocking, integration testing, error handling, logging, and UX refinements, delivering business value through more reliable expense flows and faster iteration.
