Interface Specification

ContactInfo

• String getPhoneNumber() : returns the phone number formatted as a sequence of digits
• String getEmailAddress() : returns the email address

Assumptions and Troubleshooting

• All regular expressions are tested with current data set. Should test with wider range of valid and invalid tests
• Better validation for phone numbers supporting extensions and international numbers.
• Better way to parse name. Currently going with just the email address as the best hint. Should add in additional ways to locate name if name not found in email.
• Validation is not needed for example
