Contribute

You can fork the code and submit a pull request but we would prefer you to join the team and work on branches in the main repository.

To do this please first complete https://voluntarily.atlassian.net/browse/VP-82 As a developer I can check out the code base, build and run it, and make a simple change Adding your name to the CONTRIBUTORS File indicates that you are submitting your code changes to the project under the open source licence MPL-2.0

Then ask in Gitter for a suitable Jira ticket to work on. It is always ok to increase test coverage and we encourage everyone to write automated tests to help understand the code base, find bugs and increase overall quality.

Work on a (short lived) branch labelled with the Jira ticket id e.g. task/VP-82/contributing. Submit a PR and we will endeavour to merge within a day. After your first commit we will add you to the GitHub Team so that you can branch within the project.
