Parrot Refactoring Kata

Can you spot any code smells in this code? I'll give you a clue - a spot of Pol(l)ymorphism should improve matters!

Refactor this code, take small steps, run the tests often. See how small and beautiful you can make it.

How to start the challenge

Clone the repo, checkout the branch push-challenge, and create your own branch from it.

git clone git@github.com:alpescraft/Parrot-Refactoring-Kata.git

Then create your first commit, to test the workflow. And push it.

Acknowledgements

This code is heavily inspired by one of the examples in Martin Fowler's book "Refactoring". It's a classic, and if it's not on your bookshelf already I suggest you treat yourself to a copy!
