This edition of the Core Weekly report highlights changes in PrestaShop’s core codebase from Monday 04th to Sunday 10th of March 2019.
General messages
Dear Developers,
An important step for the PrestaShop open source project has been completed last week and it is available today: the nightly builds and tests dashboard. This is a new dedicated website: https://nightly.prestashop.com/.
Each night, a new build is created with the newly merged code. Then, the automatic tests are run for this build, and a report is created. Those tests are different from the suite on Travis: they cover more features of PrestaShop, and may require several hours to complete. That’s why we don’t execute them on each pull-request, for instance. It will help contributors to improve the quality of PrestaShop.
For now, you will see that many tests are failing. This will be improved and corrected during the weeks before the code freeze. And of course, your help is welcome 😀
