Hello World

The classical introductory exercise. Just say "Hello, World!".

"Hello, World!" is the traditional first program for beginning programming in a new language or environment.

The objectives are simple:

• Write a function that returns the string "Hello, World!".
• Run the test suite and make sure that it succeeds.
• Submit your solution and check it at the website.

If everything goes well, you will be ready to fetch your first real exercise.

Running the tests

You can run all the tests for an exercise by entering the following in your terminal:

$ gradle test

Use gradlew.bat if you're on Windows

In the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.

Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by removing the @Ignore("Remove to run test") annotation.
