Too many calls to getPage() (both)

7:13pm Wed 22nd May, ANONYMOUS

Hi, I have been getting this error: testUnitNewestStudents: ERROR: too many calls to getPage(): assertion 12 <= 5 failed. I was wondering that if I put a limit on the amount of calls is that an okay way to enhance performance or is it "written only so as to pass the specific provided test cases". Thank you

I am not 100% sure what you mean by "putting a limit" on it, but I am guessing that this limit would not work in general for other test cases, and so yes, that would be considered to have been "written only so as to pass the specific provided test cases". This is not a matter of "performance". Your implementation is performing API queries to load pages that are then never iterated over. This is contrary to the specification that says to only load pages as required.
