Bitcoin integration/staging tree | ||

||
What is Bitcoin? | ||
---------------- | ||
|
||
Bitcoin is an experimental new digital currency that enables instant payments to | ||
anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate | ||
with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried | ||
out collectively by the network. Bitcoin is also the name of the open source | ||
software which enables the use of this currency. | ||
|
||
For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of | ||
the Bitcoin client sofware, see http://www.bitcoin.org. | ||
|
||
License | ||

|

Bitcoin is released under the terms of the MIT license. See `COPYING` for more | ||

|
||
Development process | ||
=================== | ||
------------------- | ||
|
||
Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think | ||
their feature or bug fix is ready. | ||
|
||
If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the Bitcoin | ||
development team members simply pulls it. | ||
|
||
If it is a *more complicated or potentially controversial* change, then the patch | ||
submitter will be asked to start a discussion (if they haven't already) on the | ||
[mailing list](http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=bitcoin-development). | ||
|
||
The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing. | ||
Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't | ||
match the project's coding conventions (see `doc/coding.txt`) or are | ||
controversial. | ||
|
||
The `master` branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be | ||
completely stable. [Tags](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tags) are created | ||
regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin. | ||
|
||
Testing | ||
------- | ||
|
||
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull | ||
requests than we can review and test. Please be patient and help out, and | ||
remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people | ||
lots of money. | ||
|
||
### Automated Testing | ||
|
||
Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when | ||
they think their feature or bug fix is ready. | ||
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to | ||
submit new unit tests for old code. | ||
|
||
If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the | ||
bitcoin development team members simply pulls it. | ||
Unit tests for the core code are in `src/test/`. To compile and run them: | ||
|
||
If it is a more complicated or potentially controversial | ||
change, then the patch submitter will be asked to start a | ||
discussion (if they haven't already) on the mailing list: | ||
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=bitcoin-development | ||
cd src; make -f makefile.linux test | ||
|
||
The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a | ||
good thing. Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches | ||
if they don't match the project's coding conventions (see coding.txt) | ||
or are controversial. | ||
Unit tests for the GUI code are in `src/qt/test/`. To compile and run them: | ||
|
||
The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed | ||
to be completely stable. Tags are regularly created to indicate new | ||
official, stable release versions of Bitcoin. If you would like to | ||
help test the Bitcoin core, please contact [email protected]. | ||
qmake BITCOIN_QT_TEST=1 -o Makefile.test bitcoin-qt.pro | ||
make -f Makefile.test | ||
./Bitcoin-Qt | ||
|
||
Feature branches are created when there are major new features being | ||
worked on by several people. | ||
Every pull request is built for both Windows and Linux on a dedicated server, | ||
and unit and sanity tests are automatically run. The binaries produced may be | ||
used for manual QA testing -- a link to them will appear in a comment on the | ||
pull request posted by 'BitcoinPullTester'. See `https://github.com/TheBlueMatt/test-scripts` | ||
for the build/test scripts. | ||
|
||
From time to time a pull request will become outdated. If this occurs, and | ||
the pull is no longer automatically mergeable; a comment on the pull will | ||
be used to issue a warning of closure. The pull will be closed 15 days | ||
after the warning if action is not taken by the author. Pull requests closed | ||
in this manner will have their corresponding issue labeled 'stagnant'. | ||
### Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing | ||
|
||
Issues with no commits will be given a similar warning, and closed after | ||
15 days from their last activity. Issues closed in this manner will be | ||
labeled 'stale'. | ||
Large changes should have a test plan, and should be tested by somebody other | ||
than the developer who wrote the code. | ||
|
||
Requests to reopen closed pull requests and/or issues can be submitted to | ||
[email protected]. | ||
See `https://github.com/bitcoin/QA/` for how to create a test plan. |
