Feature: Save data in iCalendarFormat for 'Calendar App'

[JerJohn15]

There are some libraries that have been created to help manage ics files. biweekly and ical4j are two such examples that might allow me to implement this feature.

To Do

• Use biweekly to create and save icalendar format data.
• Create action event to save file in ICalendarFormat.
• create an algorithm to take a user's input and store it in the ical format.
• Create sample tests using junit.

[JerJohn15]

Although ical4j seems to be the more popular out of the two, I've decided to use biweekly because it appears that it is easier to use.

Plan for Creating Algorithm:

Data needed to store from user into API

• Start Date (possibly end date)
• Summary (this is the title)
• Duration (possibly)
• Recurrence (possibly)
• File Name

(See writing icalendar data and javadoc)

Tests for writing calendar data:

1. The title field is selected by the user
2. The date picker is selected by the user
3. The text area is selected by the user.
4. Locate the title field and enter a name for the title
5. Locate the date picker field and enter a date
6. Locate the description field and enter a description.
7. Locate the save button and click it.
8. Enter a file name and click save.
9. The file name is saved into an icalendar format file.
