I think this has been by far the hardest project for me by far. There were a lot of things that I spent a LONG time working through and still had no success. My biggest challenges were working with the controller test for rank/vote. I left some of my thoughts in as comments, but for some reason, it would not go through and work. I also struggled with the other tests because I think I didn't fully understand how to use the fixture and its relationship with the test database. May we please talk about this some more. I spent too much time working on the controller tests and I still feel that there are many things I wasn't able to consider within them. Although I created the CSS Framework early on, I saved the CSS styling for last and didn't realize how different this would be from regular CSS styling. I was able to make some changes for the files in the application.css but for some reason, it would not allow me to put customized css. For example, I tried to add a class = "button" and then I was going to style all the buttons, but for some reason this was not working. This was in a section were there was also another class, but as far as I could tell, this should not have impacted it. I ultimately did not budget enough time for these final touch ups after spending too much time trying to work through the controller tests. I think it might be helpful to go over the successful completed project to help see examples of things I struggled with.
