Code Coverage

Overview

The Fly Tracker library lets you monitor the flight prices for any route. The user has the option to set up notifications for the tracked route which can help him book tickets when he/she wants to. Once you run the command to start the notifications, the script runs at 12 AM and 12 PM Everyday and this is exactly when you receive the email. The source of our data is Google Flights, which is very reliable since it lists the best price for every option and hence, we notify you with all options avalaible to you.
