| ## Debugging | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| To get all the logcat messages by F-Droid, you can run: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     adb logcat | grep `adb shell ps | grep org.fdroid.fdroid | cut -c10-15` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Building tips | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| * Use gradle with `--daemon` if you are going to build F-Droid multiple times. | ||||
| * If you get a message like `Could not find com.android.support:support-...`, | ||||
|   make sure that you have the latest Android support maven repository. | ||||
| * When building as part of AOSP with `Android.mk`, make sure you have a | ||||
|   recent version of Gradle installed as `gradlew` will not be used. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Running the test suite | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Before pushing commits to a merge request, make sure this passes: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     ./gradlew checkstyle pmd lint | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| In order to run the F-Droid test suite, you will need to have either a real device | ||||
| connected via `adb`, or an emulator running. Then, execute the following from the | ||||
| command line: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     ./gradlew check | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Note that the CI already runs the tests on an emulator, so you don't | ||||
| necessarily have to do this yourself if you open a merge request as the tests | ||||
| will get run. | ||||
| Many important tests require a device or emulator, but do not work in GitLab CI. | ||||
| That mean they need to be run locally, and that is usually easiest in Android | ||||
| Studio rather than the command line. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Running tests in Android Studio | ||||
| For a quick way to run a specific JUnit/Robolectric test: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Later versions of Android Studio require tests to be run with a "Working directory" | ||||
| of `$MODULE_DIR$`. | ||||
| [To make this the default behaviour](https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=158015#c11), | ||||
| close any projects to get the Welcome dialog. Then choose _Configure > Project Defaults > | ||||
| Run Configurations > Defaults > Android JUnit_, and change "Working directory" | ||||
| to `$MODULE_DIR$`. If you already have a project setup in Android Studio, you | ||||
| may also need to change the default in _Run > Edit Configurations... > Defaults > | ||||
| Android JUnit_. | ||||
|     ./gradlew testFullDebugUnitTest --tests *LocaleSelectionTest* | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Versioning | ||||
| For a quick way to run a specific emulator test: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Each stable version follows the `X.Y` pattern. Hotfix releases - i.e. when a | ||||
| stable has an important bug that needs immediate fixing - will follow the | ||||
| `X.Y.Z` pattern. | ||||
| 	./gradlew connectedFullDebugAndroidTest \ | ||||
|         -Pandroid.testInstrumentationRunnerArguments.class=org.fdroid.fdroid.MainActivityExpressoTest | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Before each stable release, a number of alpha releases will be released. They | ||||
| will follow the pattern `X.Y-alphaN`, where `N` is the current alpha number. | ||||
| These will usually include changes and new features that have not been tested | ||||
| enough for a stable release, so use at your own risk. Testers and reporters | ||||
| are very welcome. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The version codes use a number of digits per each of these keys: `XXXYYYZNN`. | ||||
| So for example, 1.3.1 would be `1003150` and 0.95-alpha13 would be `95013` | ||||
| (leading zeros are omitted). | ||||
| ## Making releases | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Note that we use a trailing `50` for actual stable releases, so alphas are | ||||
| limited to `-alpha49`. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| This is an example of a release process for **0.95**: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| * We are currently at stable **0.94** | ||||
| * **0.95-alpha1** is released | ||||
| * **0.95-alpha2** is released | ||||
| * **0.95-alpha3** is released | ||||
| * `stable-v0.95` is branched and frozen | ||||
| * **0.95** is released | ||||
| * A bug is reported on the stable release and fixed | ||||
| * **0.95.1** is released with only that fix | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| As soon as a stable is tagged, master will move on to `-alpha0` on the next | ||||
| version. This is a temporary measure - until `-alpha1` is released - so that | ||||
| moving from stable to master doesn't require a downgrade. `-alpha0` versions | ||||
| will not be tagged nor released. | ||||
