How to contribute

Please read these guidelines before contributing to Silverback:

Found an Issue?

If you find a bug in the source code or a mistake in the documentation, you can help by submitting an issue to the GitHub repository. Or, even better, you can submit a pull request with a fix.

When submitting an issue please include the following information:

  • A description of the issue
  • The exception message and stacktrace if an error was thrown
  • If possible, please include code that reproduces the issue. DropBox or GitHub's Gist can be used to share large code samples, or you could submit a pull request with the issue reproduced in a new unit test.

The more information you include about the issue, the more likely it is to be fixed!

Want a Feature?

You can request a new feature by submitting an issue to the GitHub repository. Before requesting a feature consider the following:

  • Silverback has many extensibility points, it is very likely that you can implement your feature without having to modify Silverback
  • Stability is important and large breaking changes are unlikely to be accepted

Submitting a Pull Request

When submitting a pull request to the GitHub repository make sure to do the following:

  • Check that new and updated code follows Silverback's existing code formatting and naming standard
  • Run all unit tests to ensure no existing functionality has been affected
  • Write new unit tests to test your changes: all features and fixed bugs must have tests to verify they work
  • Run a code cleanup on the files you touched if using R# or Rider

Read GitHub help for more details about creating pull requests.

Detailed step-by-step instructions to build and test Silverback can be found in the project's website.
