Be sure you have tested the example in all the supported targets. If the example works only with specific targets,
edit/add the ``ci.json`` in the same folder as the sketch to specify the supported targets. By default,
all targets are assumed to be supported.
**Example**
Here is an example of the ``ci.json`` file where the example does not support ESP32-H2 and ESP32-S2:
.. code-block:: arduino
.. code-block:: json
{
"targets": {
"esp32h2": false,
"esp32s2": false
}
}
You also need to add this information in the ``README.md`` file, on the **Supported Targets**, and in the example code as an inline comment.
For example, in the sketch:
.. code-block:: arduino
/*
THIS FEATURE IS SUPPORTED ONLY BY ESP32-S2 AND ESP32-C3
*/
and

Documentation
-------------
If you are contributing to the documentation, please follow the instructions described in the
`documentation guidelines <guides/docs_contributing>`_ to properly format and test your changes.
Testing and CI
--------------
After you have made your changes, you should test them. You can do this in different ways depending on the type of change you have made.
Examples
********
The easiest way to test an example is to load it into the Arduino IDE and run it on your board. If you have multiple boards,
you should test it on all of them to ensure that the example works on all supported targets.
You can refer to the `Example Contribution Guideline`_ section for more information on how to write and test examples.
Library Changes
***************
If you have made changes to a library, you should test it on all supported targets. You can do this by loading the library examples (or creating new ones)
into the Arduino IDE and running them on your board. If you have multiple boards, you should test it on all of them to ensure that the library
works as expected on all targets.
You can also add a new test suite to automatically check the library. You can refer to the `Adding a New Test Suite`_ section for more information.
Core Changes
************
If you have made changes to the core, it is important to ensure that the changes do not break the existing functionality. You can do this by running the
tests on all supported targets. You can refer to the `Runtime Tests`_ section for more information.
CI
**
In our repository, we have a Continuous Integration (CI) system that runs tests and fixes on every Pull Request. This system will run the tests
on all supported targets and check if everything is working as expected.
We have many types of tests and checks, including:
* Compilation tests;
* Runtime tests;
* Documentation checks;
* Code style checks;
* And more.
Let's go deeper into each type of test in the CI system:
Compilation Tests
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The compilation tests are the first type of tests in the CI system. They check if the code compiles on all supported targets.
If the code does not compile, the CI system will fail the test and the Pull Request will not be merged.
This is important to ensure that the code is compatible with all supported targets and no broken code is merged.
It will go through all the sketches in the repository and check if they compile on all supported targets. This process is automated and controlled
by GitHub Actions. The CI system will run the ``arduino-cli`` tool to compile the sketches on all supported targets.
Testing it locally using the CI scripts would be too time consuming, so we recommend running the tests locally using the Arduino IDE with
a sketch that uses the changes you made (you can also add the sketch as an example if your change is not covered by the existing ones).
Make sure to set ``Compiler Warnings`` to ``All`` in the Arduino IDE to catch any potential issues.
Runtime Tests
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Another type of test is the runtime tests. They check if the code runs and behaves as expected on all supported targets. If the
code does not run as expected, the CI system will fail the test and the Pull Request will not be merged. This is important to ensure that the code
works as expected on all supported targets and no unintended crashes or bugs are introduced.
These tests are specialized sketches that run on the target board and check if the code behaves as expected. This process is automated and
controlled by the ``pytest_embedded`` tool. You can read more about this tool in its
`documentation <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/pytest-embedded/en/latest/>`_.
The tests are divided into two categories inside the ``tests`` folder:
* ``validation``: These tests are used to validate the behavior of the Arduino core and libraries. They are used to check if the core and libraries
are working as expected;
* ``performance``: These tests are used to check the performance of the Arduino core and libraries. They are used to check if the changes made
to the core and libraries have any big impact on the performance. These tests usually run for a longer time than the validation tests and include
common benchmark tools like `CoreMark <https://github.com/eembc/coremark>`_.
To run the runtime tests locally, first install the required dependencies by running:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install -U -r tests/requirements.txt
Before running the test, we need to build it by running:
.. code-block:: bash
./.github/scripts/tests_build.sh -s <test_name> -t <target>
The ``<test_name>`` is the name of the test you want to run (you can check the available tests in the ``tests/validation`` and
``tests/performance`` folders), and the ``<target>`` is the target board you want to run the test on. For example, to run the ``uart`` test on the
ESP32-C3 target, you would run:
.. code-block:: bash
./.github/scripts/tests_build.sh -s uart -t esp32c3
You should see the output of the build process and the test binary should be generated in the ``~/.arduino/tests/<test_name>/build.tmp`` folder.
Now that the test is built, you can run it in the target board. Connect the target board to your computer and run:
.. code-block:: bash
./.github/scripts/tests_run.sh -s <test_name> -t <target>
For example, to run the ``uart`` test on the ESP32-C3 target, you would run:
.. code-block:: bash
./.github/scripts/tests_run.sh -s uart -t esp32c3
The test will run on the target board and you should see the output of the test in the terminal:
.. code-block:: bash

After the test is finished, you can check the output in the terminal and the generated XML file in the test folder.
Additionally, for performance tests, you can check the generated JSON file in the same folder.
You can also run the tests in `Wokwi <https://docs.wokwi.com/>`_ or `Espressif's QEMU <https://github.com/espressif/esp-toolchain-docs/tree/main/qemu>`_
by using the ``-W <timeout_in_ms>`` and ``-Q`` flags respectively. You will need to have the Wokwi and/or QEMU installed in your system
and set the ``WOKWI_CLI_TOKEN`` and/or ``QEMU_PATH`` environment variables. The ``WOKWI_CLI_TOKEN`` is the CI token that can be obtained from the
`Wokwi website <https://wokwi.com/dashboard/ci>`_ and the ``QEMU_PATH`` is the path to the QEMU binary.
For example, to run the ``uart`` test using Wokwi, you would run:
.. code-block:: bash
WOKWI_CLI_TOKEN=<your_wokwi_token> ./.github/scripts/tests_run.sh -s uart -t esp32c3 -W <timeout_in_ms>
And to run the ``uart`` test using QEMU, you would run:
.. code-block:: bash
QEMU_PATH=<path_to_qemu_binary> ./.github/scripts/tests_run.sh -s uart -t esp32c3 -Q
.. note::
Not all tests are supported by Wokwi and QEMU. QEMU is only supported for ESP32 and ESP32-C3 targets.
Wokwi support depends on the `currently implemented peripherals <https://docs.wokwi.com/guides/esp32#simulation-features>`_.
Adding a New Test Suite
#######################
If you want to add a new test suite, you can create a new folder inside ``tests/validation`` or ``tests/performance`` with the name of the test suite.
You can use the ``hello_world`` test suite as a starting point and the other test suites as a reference.
A test suite contains the following files:
* ``test_<test_name>.py``: The test file that contains the test cases. Required.
* ``<test_name>.ino``: The sketch that will be tested. Required.
* ``ci.json``: The file that specifies how the test suite will be run in the CI system. Optional.
* ``diagram.<target>.json``: The diagram file that specifies the connections between the components in Wokwi. Optional.
* ``scenario.yaml``: The scenario file that specifies how Wokwi will interact with the components. Optional.
* Any other files that are needed for the test suite.
You can read more about the test python API in the `pytest-embedded documentation <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/pytest-embedded/en/latest/usages/expecting.html>`_.
For more information about the Unity testing framework, you can check the `Unity documentation <https://github.com/ThrowTheSwitch/Unity>`_.
After creating the test suite, make sure to test it locally and run it in the CI system to ensure that it works as expected.
CI JSON File
############
The ``ci.json`` file is used to specify how the test suite and sketches will handled by the CI system. It can contain the following fields:
* ``targets``: A dictionary that specifies the supported targets. The key is the target name and the value is a boolean that specifies if the
target is supported. By default, all targets are assumed to be supported. This field is also valid for examples.
* ``platforms``: A dictionary that specifies the supported platforms. The key is the platform name and the value is a boolean that specifies if
the platform is supported. By default, all platforms are assumed to be supported.
* ``extra_tags``: A list of extra tags that the runner will require when running the test suite in hardware. By default, no extra tags are required.
* ``fqbn``: A dictionary that specifies the FQBNs that will be used to compile the sketch. The key is the target name and the value is a list
of FQBNs. The `default FQBNs <https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/blob/a31a5fca1739993173caba995f7785b8eed6b30e/.github/scripts/sketch_utils.sh#L86-L91>`_
are used if this field is not specified.
The ``wifi`` test suite is a good example of how to use the ``ci.json`` file:
.. literalinclude:: ../../tests/validation/wifi/ci.json
:language: json
Documentation Checks
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The CI also checks the documentation for any compilation errors. This is important to ensure that the documentation layout is not broken.
To build the documentation locally, please refer to the `documentation guidelines <guides/docs_contributing>`_.
Code Style Checks
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For checking the code style and other code quality checks, we use pre-commit hooks.
These hooks will be automatically run by the CI when a Pull Request is marked as ``Status: Pending Merge``.
You can check which hooks are being run in the ``.pre-commit-config.yaml`` file.
You can read more about the pre-commit hooks in the `pre-commit documentation <https://pre-commit.com/>`_.
If you want to run the pre-commit hooks locally, you first need to install the required dependencies by running:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install -U -r tools/pre-commit/requirements.txt
Then, you can run the pre-commit hooks staging your changes and running:
.. code-block:: bash
pre-commit run
To run a specific hook, you can use the hook name as an argument. For example, to run the ``codespell`` hook, you would run:
.. code-block:: bash
pre-commit run codespell
If you want to run the pre-commit hooks automatically against the changed files on every ``git commit``,
you can install the pre-commit hooks by running:
.. code-block:: bash
pre-commit install
