Skara offers two ways for contributors to test their changes before they are integrated:

• The /test pull request command
• Automatic testing via GitHub Actions

This page will describe how do testing with the help of GitHub Actions, please see the reference documentation for the /test pull request command for how to use /test.

GitHub Actions

GitHub Actions is a way to describe workflows that should be triggered when certain events occur, such as the push of a commit to personal fork. For contributors that have a personal fork of the jdk repository then builds and tests will be executed when a commit is pushed to the contributor's personal fork.
