All such changes should be discussed in a dedicated issue, added to a corresponding milestone (which can be found or created in the project's Issues), and merged right before the major release. Take a look at similar issues to see what needs to be done and reflect on the steps you did/need to do in the issue. +- Every PR (except doc, refactoring, test-related, or a PR containing a new module/plugin) contains a [changelog fragment](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/development_process.html#creating-a-changelog-fragment). Let's give users a chance to know about the changes. +- Every new module `DOCUMENTATION` section contains the `version_added: 'x.y.z'` field. Besides the informative purpose, it is used by the changelog-generating tool to add a corresponding entry to the changelog. As the project follows SemVer, it is typically a next minor (x.y.0) version. +- Every new module argument contains the `version_added: 'x.y.z'` field. As the project follows SemVer, it is typically a next minor (x.y.0) version. +- Non-refactoring code changes (bugfixes, new features) are covered with, at least, integration tests!

You can see the reason by clicking the ``Details`` link. Fix them locally and push the commit. + +Generally, all jobs must be green. +Sometimes, there can be failures unrelated to a PR, for example, when a test container is unavailable or there is another part of the code that does not satisfy recently introduced additional sanity checks. +If you think the failure does not relate to your changes, put a comment about it. + +## CI testing + +The jobs are launched automatically by GitHub Actions in every PR based on the [matrix](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/blob/main/.github/workflows/ansible-test-plugins.yml). + +As the project is included in `ansible` community package, it is a requirement for us to test against all supported `ansible-core` versions and corresponding Python versions. +To keep the matrix relevant, we are subscribed to the [news-for-maintainers](https://github.com/ansible-collections/news-for-maintainers) repository and the [Collection maintainers & contributors](https://forum.ansible.com/g/CollectionMaintainer) forum group to track announcements affecting CI. + +If our matrix is permanently outdated, for example, when supported `ansible-core` versions are missed, the collections can get excluded from the package, so keep it updated! + +Read more about our CI implementation in the [TESTING.md](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.mysql/blob/main/TESTING.md) file. + +## Adding tests + +If you are new here, read the [Quick-start development guide](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/create_pr_quick_start.html) first. + +When fixing a bug, first reproduce it by adding a task as reported to a suitable file under the ``tests/integration/targets/<module_name>/tasks/`` directory and run the integration tests as described below. The same is relevant for new features. + +It is not necessary but if you want you can also add unit tests to a suitable file under the ``tests/units/`` directory and run them as described below. + +## Checking your code locally + +It will make your and other people's life a bit easier if you run the tests locally and fix all failures before pushing. If you're unable to run the tests locally, please create your PR as a **draft** to avoid reviewers being added automatically. + +If you are new here, read the [Quick-start development guide](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/create_pr_quick_start.html) first. + +We assume you [prepared your local environment](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/create_pr_quick_start.html#prepare-your-environment) as described in the guide before running the following commands.
