Contributing to TestBeats Publish GitHub Action

We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:

  • Reporting a bug
  • Discussing the current state of the code
  • Submitting a fix
  • Proposing new features
  • Becoming a maintainer

We would love to hear ideas, feedback & questions

We use Github Discussions to receive feedback, discuss ideas & answer questions.

Do you want to contribute to the TestBeats Publish GitHub Action upcoming features? If something seems interesting, start a discussion, we can give more details & create an issue for you to work.

Report bugs using Github Issues

We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue, it's that easy!

We Develop with Github

We use github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.

All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests

Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (we use Github Flow). We actively welcome your pull requests:

  1. Fork the repo and create your branch from main.
  2. If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
  3. This library strives to be lightweight. Changes should be as minimum as possible by never compromising on the quality of the features. If you need to add a new package as a dependency, please reach out to maintainers at Github Discussions.
  4. If you've changed APIs, raise an issue for documentation update or start a Github Discussion.
  5. Ensure the test suite passes.
  6. Make sure your code lints.
  7. Issue that pull request!

Development Setup

After you've cloned the repository to your local machine or codespace, you'll need to perform some initial setup steps before you can develop your action.

Note

You'll need to have a reasonably modern version of Node.js handy (20.x or later should work!). If you are using a version manager like nodenv or fnm, this template has a .node-version file at the root of the repository that can be used to automatically switch to the correct version when you cd into the repository. Additionally, this .node-version file is used by GitHub Actions in any actions/setup-node actions.

  1. 🛠️ Install the dependencies

    npm install
  2. 🏗️ Package the TypeScript for distribution

    npm run bundle
  3. ✅ Run the tests

    $ npm test
    
    PASS  __tests__/index.test.ts
    index
       ✓ should call run function when imported (8 ms)
    
    PASS  __tests__/main.test.ts
    Github Action Run
       ✓ should execute testbeats CLI command for slack/Junit - only CLI params (2 ms)
       ✓ should execute testbeats CLI command for slack/testng - only CLI params
       ✓ should execute testbeats CLI command for teams/cucumber - only CLI params
       ✓ should execute testbeats CLI command for chat/mocha - only CLI params
       ✓ should execute testbeats CLI command for slack/mocha - with api key, project, and run (1 ms)
       ✓ should execute testbeats CLI command for Junit - only config file
       ✓ should handle CLI command failure
       ✓ should handle unexpected errors (1 ms)
       ✓ should handle non-Error objects in catch block
       ✓ should not include empty inputs in arguments

Update the Action Metadata

After testing, you can create version tag(s) that developers can use to reference different stable versions of your action. For more information, see Versioning in the GitHub Actions toolkit.

The action.yml file defines metadata about the action, such as input(s) and output(s). For details about this file, see Metadata syntax for GitHub Actions.

Publishing a New Release

This project includes a helper script, script/release designed to streamline the process of tagging and pushing new releases for GitHub Actions.

GitHub Actions allows users to select a specific version of the action to use, based on release tags. This script simplifies this process by performing the following steps:

  1. Retrieving the latest release tag: The script starts by fetching the most recent SemVer release tag of the current branch, by looking at the local data available in your repository.
  2. Prompting for a new release tag: The user is then prompted to enter a new release tag. To assist with this, the script displays the tag retrieved in the previous step, and validates the format of the inputted tag (vX.X.X). The user is also reminded to update the version field in package.json.
  3. Tagging the new release: The script then tags a new release and syncs the separate major tag (e.g. v1, v2) with the new release tag (e.g. v1.0.0, v2.1.2). When the user is creating a new major release, the script auto-detects this and creates a releases/v# branch for the previous major version.
  4. Pushing changes to remote: Finally, the script pushes the necessary commits, tags and branches to the remote repository. From here, you will need to create a new release in GitHub so users can easily reference the new tags in their workflows.
