# Maintaining the tests <span class="related-pages">#testing/automated-testing #testing/manual-testing</span> This project really cares about automated testing of its source code. It's not perfect, but it is valuable and we try to continually improve the tests. ## Running automated tests - [[Introduction to Running the tests]] - start here if you haven't run the tests before - [[Test Coverage]] ## Writing automated tests - [[Introduction to Writing Unit Tests]] - start here if you haven't written tests before, or are new to testing in TypeScript - [[Jest Test Framework]] - useful links on our chosen test framework - [[Example Tests]] - this shows a selection of existing tests, to give ideas on writing new tests - [[Jest and the WebStorm IDE]] - tips if you use WebStorm - [[Writing Tests for New or Refactored Code]] - tips if you're stuck writing tests Testing dates and times: - [[How do I use Moment in tests]] - how to test date and time values - [[Simulating Dates and Times]] - examples of how to use fixed dates and times in tests - [[Testing and Time Zones]] - how to test in different time zones (with difficulty) Testing code that uses Obsidian API: - [[Using Obsidian API in tests]] More advanced features: - [[Snapshot Tests]] - easy testing of complex string values - [[Approval Tests]] - easy testing of complex string values and objects, collections of values, and generation of documentation snippets for [[Embedding code and data in documentation|embedding machine-generated information]] in the user docs. ## Manual Testing - [[How do I test a GitHub build of the Tasks plugin]] - [[How do I smoke-test the Tasks plugin]]
