Foreign exchange

The European Central Bank provides reference daily exchange rates for currencies against the Euro. They update every working day at 16:00 CET. For this exercise, EuropeanCentralBankServer uses preloaded reference rates for October 2025.

Here is one of them: the rate for EUR to TRY (Turkish Lira) together with its fluctuations over the past year. Consider the graph in the link. Can you bet on what tomorrow's rate will be?

Complete the integration test, asserting some basic properties of the currency conversion.
