Contributing by testing Cuberite
|
||
|
===============================
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can help us even if you are not a programmer! This document explains how.
|
||
|
If you would like to help with coding instead, see `README.md` and `GETTING-STARTING.md`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here are things you can help with without being a programmer:
|
||
|
- Run and test Cuberite. Report issues, bugs, crashes, and stacktraces at the [issue tracker](https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/issues). This is best done in debug mode.
|
||
|
- Test unmerged versions (known as branches or Pull Requests) which are marked with the [ingame-testing-needed](https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3Aingame-testing-needed) label.
|
||
|
Note that code marked with `ingame-testing-needed` is not always available, and sometimes the above list will be empty.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please use the issue tracker search feature and make sure your issue has not been reported before!
|

Obtaining Debug builds
|
||
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
When testing Cuberite, debug builds are preferred because they output detailed info about the problem that had occured at the server console.
|
||
|
Currently, we do not provide debug builds. You will have to compile Cuberite yourself to obtain them. See the compilation instructions.
|
||
|
You can also test with regular builds.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Testing unmerged pull requests
|
||
|
------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
To test unmerged branches, pick one from the [ingame-testing-needed](https://github.com/cuberite/cuberite/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3Aingame-testing-needed) list, and follow the download instructions.
|
||
|
If you are familiar with git, you can also fetch and compile the unmerged branch instead.
