Wanna contribute? Please add the missing tests

[vbrazo]

If you're just starting to work with Faker, you should read the contributors file.

After setting up the project in your local machine, you should run the tests to find the missing tests.

Take a look at the screenshoot.

The goal should be adding tests for the files that have coverage < 100%.

Do you want to be part of the solution?

I know that there are 3 warnings that are displayed when you run bundle exec rake or simply rake. These warnings are coming from a dependency/gem. I already wrote an issue about it in their repository, and I'm waiting for a response cldwalker/hirb#103.

@vbrazo I would love to help! Should I be assigned to this to prevent test duplication?

[vbrazo]

You can go ahead and make your changes. Link your PR in this issue so people will see that you're working on it.

@vbrazo I am struggling to follow the flow of the tests. Is there any documentation of how the testing works? Or any resources you can point me to? I do apologize for slowing you down and really appreciate any help or insight you can provide 😄

@aamarill , take a look at the test folder, such as this one right here.

The tests can be simple. For example, you'll see here they are calling the different methods and asserting that the returned result is a string.

@ZASMan Thanks for the feedback. 👏

I am trying to play with it a bit (to understand it) by trying to print to the terminal from an arbitrary method (inside one of the test files). But, it seems none of the methods get executed when I run the tests except on the setup method. Hopefully this picture is worth a thousand words 😃

edit: better picture.

Method names must begin with test_ to be executed.

[aamarill]

Thanks @stympy! I just remembered that 😄 I was trying to figure out if they were being run some other way, somehow. Thanks again !!

[vbrazo]

We have 99.92%. I think we're ok and good to go.

Impressive skill @vbrazo I wasn't sure on how to test for the last ones you did! 😮 👍
