Hurray! We are glad that you want to contribute to our project! 👍
If this is your first contribution, not to worry! We have a great tutorial to help you get started, and you can always ask us for help in the #athens
channel in the gopher slack. We'll give you whatever guidance you need.
Run make verify
to run all the same validations that our CI process runs, such
as checking that the standard go formatting is applied, linting, etc.
Run make setup-dev-env
to install local developer tools and run necessary
services, such as mongodb, for the end-to-end tests.
Run make test-unit
to run the unit tests.
End-to-End tests (e2e) are tests from the user perspective that validate that
everything works when running real live servers, and using go
with GOPROXY set.
Run make test-e2e
to run the end-to-end tests.
The first time you run the tests,
you must run make setup-dev-env
first, otherwise you will see errors like the one below:
error connecting to storage (no reachable servers)
