Add a simple king and queen classes which implement the behaviour of the royalty interface. Also wrote the object mother of royalty objects which is final so you can just call the static methods in it to create objects with a specific state to use them fast in tests. The tests are already created for testing the behaviour and the type of the objects which are created by the object mother. I also created the UML diagrams via object aid and updated the readme.
Design patterns implemented in Java
Introduction
Design patterns are formalized best practices that the programmer can use to solve common problems when designing an application or system.
Design patterns can speed up the development process by providing tested, proven development paradigms.
Reusing design patterns helps to prevent subtle issues that can cause major problems, and it also improves code readability for coders and architects who are familiar with the patterns.
Getting started
Before you dive into the material, you should be familiar with various Programming/Software Design Principles.
All designs should be as simple as possible. You should start with KISS, YAGNI, and Do The Simplest Thing That Could Possibly Work principles. Complexity and patterns should only be introduced when they are needed for practical extensibility.
Once you are familiar with these concepts you can start drilling down into patterns by any of the following approaches
- Using difficulty tags,
Difficulty-Beginner,Difficulty-Intermediate&Difficulty-Expert. - Using pattern categories,
Creational,Behavioraland others. - Search for a specific pattern. Can't find one? Please report a new pattern here.
