In addition there are a lot of other contributors that helped to improve the extension with their *Pull Requests* - thank you for that!

### 3.4 Release Management

[](#34-release-management)

Powermail uses **semantic versioning** which basically means for you, that

- **bugfix updates** (e.g. 1.0.0 =&gt; 1.0.1) just includes small bugfixes or security relevant stuff without breaking changes.
- **minor updates** (e.g. 1.0.0 =&gt; 1.1.0) includes new features and smaller tasks without breaking changes.
- **major updates** (e.g. 1.0.0 =&gt; 2.0.0) normally includes basic refactoring, new features and also breaking changes.

### 3.5 Automatic Testing

[](#35-automatic-testing)

#### Behaviour tests

[](#behaviour-tests)

There is a huge testparcours that have to be passed before every release. For example there is an [automatic test](/Tests/Behavior/Features/Pi1/Validation/Input/JsPhpValidation.feature)where the browser tries to submit 18 different strings and numbers to a field that accepts only phone numbers to test serverside validation. After that the same process is done for clientside valiation. There are also some smaller tests like "Is it possible to submit a form on a page where two different forms are stored?".

See [readme.md](/Tests/Behavior/readme.md) for some more information about behat and selenium tests on powermail.

#### Unit tests

[](#unit-tests)

At the moment powermail offers many unit tests that have to be passed before every release. See more information about unit tests or code coverage in powermail in the [readme.md](/Tests/Unit/readme.md)

### 3.6 Code quality

[](#36-code-quality)

Beside respecting PSR-12 and TYPO3 coding guidelines, it's very important for the project to leave a file cleaner as before. Especially because it's a really large extension with a lot of functionality and a history of over 17 years (!) and of course some technical debts, that have to be fixed step by step.

Current quality tools are:

- php-cs-fixer
- phpstan (level 8)
- php linter
- TypoScript linter

### 3.7 Contribution

[](#37-contribution)

**Pull requests** are welcome in general! Nevertheless please don't forget to add a description to your pull requests. This is very helpful to understand what kind of issue the **PR** is going to solve.

- Bugfixes: Please describe what kind of bug your fix solve and give us feedback how to reproduce the issue. We're going to accept only bugfixes if I can reproduce the issue.
- Features: Not every feature is relevant for the bulk of powermail users. In addition: We don't want to make powermail even more complicated in usability for an edge case feature. Please discuss a new feature before.

### 3.8 Development

[](#38-development)

Compile and minify (uglify) JavaScript, compress CSS:

```
$ cd Resources/Private
$ npm install
$ ./node_modules/.bin/gulp

```
