Use ``mach`` and run mochitests according to your regular Firefox workflow. + +For ``.js``, ``.jsx``, ``.scss``, or ``.css`` files +--------------------------------------------------- + +Prerequisites +````````````` + +You will need the following: + +- Node.js 10+ (On Mac, the best way to install Node.js is to use the install link on the `Node.js homepage`_) +- npm (packaged with Node.js) + +To install dependencies, run the following from the root of the mozilla-central repository. +(Using ``mach`` to call ``npm`` and ``node`` commands will ensure you're using the correct versions of Node and npm.) + +.. code-block:: shell + + (cd browser/components/aboutwelcome && ../../../mach npm install) + + +Which files should you edit? +```````````````````````````` + +You should not make changes to ``.js`` or ``.css`` files in the ``browser/components/aboutwelcome/content`` directory. Instead, you should edit the ``.jsx``, ``.js``, and ``.scss`` source files +in ``browser/components/aboutwelcome/content-src`` directory. These files will be compiled into the ``.js`` and ``.css`` files. + + +Building assets and running Firefox +----------------------------------- + +To build assets and run Firefox, run the following from the root of the mozilla-central repository: + +.. code-block:: shell + + ./mach npm run bundle --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome && ./mach build && ./mach run + +Continuous development / debugging +---------------------------------- +Running ``./mach npm run watchmc --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome`` will start a process that watches files in +``aboutwelcome`` and rebuilds the bundled files when JS or CSS files change. + +**IMPORTANT NOTE**: This task will add inline source maps to help with debugging, which changes the memory footprint. +Do not use the ``watchmc`` task for profiling or performance testing! + +Running tests +------------- +About:welcome unit tests are written using +`mocha `_, and other errors that may show up there are +`SCSS `_ issues flagged by +`stylelint `_. These things are all run using +``npm test`` under the ``aboutwelcome`` slug in Treeherder/Try, so if that slug turns +red, these tests are what is failing. To execute them, do this: + +.. code-block:: shell + + ./mach npm test --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome + +Windows isn't currently supported by ``npm test`` +(`path/invocation difference `_). +To run tests that aren't covered by ``mach lint`` and +``mach test``: + +.. code-block:: shell + + ./mach npm run lint:stylelint --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome + ./mach npm run testmc:build --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome + ./mach npm run testmc:unit --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome + +Mochitests run normally, using ``mach test browser/components/aboutwelcome``. + +Code Coverage +------------- +Our testing setup will run code coverage tools in addition to just the unit +tests. It will error out if the code coverage metrics don't meet certain thresholds. + +If you see any missing test coverage, you can inspect the coverage report by +running + +.. code-block:: shell + + ./mach npm test --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome && + ./mach npm run debugcoverage --prefix=browser/components/aboutwelcome + +.. _Node.js homepage: https://nodejs.org/ -- cgit v1.2.3
