Description gsalter2-c 2022-11-28 14:54:12 HKT 
Created attachment 139 [details]
Pawn can eat pieces in front of it

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run App.java
2. Execute the following moves: 1. d4 d5 2. dxd5

In the last move, dxd5, white pawn attempts to eat black pawn 1 box in front of it, which is invalid.

Expected results:
Move is invalid, therefore not executed.

Actual resutls:
Move is counted as valid and executed.
Comment 1 jtoromano2-c 2022-11-28 16:09:20 HKT 
Reason:

Square where pawn wants to move shouldn't have piece, otherwise, move is not valid. We forgot to test that condition initially. 


Resolution:

Adding condition to check if final point where pawn wants to move already has piece. If that is true, move is invalid.
