You have already explored how to select, filter, and mutate data using **dplyr**. Now, you will put your skills to the test by arranging and summarizing sales data. In this challenge, you will work with a `sales_data` data frame to uncover key performance insights. You will need to arrange the data by `revenue` and then use the `summarise()` function to calculate both total and average sales. This exercise will help you reinforce your understanding of two essential data manipulation techniques and see how they work together to answer important business questions.


library(testthat)

source("user_code.R")
test_that("arranged_sales is sorted by revenue descending", {
  expect_true(exists("arranged_sales"), info = "arranged_sales does not exist")
  expect_true(is.data.frame(arranged_sales), info = "arranged_sales should be a data frame")
  expect_equal(arranged_sales$revenue, sort(sales_data$revenue, decreasing = TRUE),
               info = "arranged_sales is not sorted by revenue descending")
})

test_that("sales_summary contains correct total_sales", {
  expect_true(exists("sales_summary"), info = "sales_summary does not exist")
  expect_true(is.data.frame(sales_summary), info = "sales_summary should be a data frame")
  expect_true("total_sales" %in% names(sales_summary), info = "sales_summary does not have total_sales column")
  expect_equal(sales_summary$total_sales, sum(sales_data$units_sold),
               info = "total_sales value is incorrect")
})

test_that("sales_summary contains correct average_sales", {
  expect_true(exists("sales_summary"), info = "sales_summary does not exist")
  expect_true(is.data.frame(sales_summary), info = "sales_summary should be a data frame")
  expect_true("average_sales" %in% names(sales_summary), info = "sales_summary does not have average_sales column")
  expect_equal(sales_summary$average_sales, mean(sales_data$units_sold),
               info = "average_sales value is incorrect")
})
