This is a simple test dapp for use in MetaMask e2e tests and manual QA.
Currently hosted here.
If you wish to use this dapp in your e2e tests, install this package and set up a script of e.g. the following form:
static-server node_modules/@metamask/test-dapp/dist --port 9011
- Install Node.js version 12
- If you are using nvm (recommended) running
nvm use
will automatically choose the right node version for you.
- If you are using nvm (recommended) running
- Install Yarn v1
- Run
yarn setup
to install dependencies and run any requried post-install scripts- Warning: Do not use the
yarn
/yarn install
command directly. Useyarn setup
instead. The normal install command will skip required post-install scripts, leaving your development environment in an invalid state.
- Warning: Do not use the
Run yarn lint
to run the linter, or run yarn lint:fix
to run the linter and fix any automatically fixable issues.
This package has no tests.
After merging or pushing to main
, please run yarn deploy
in the package root directory if the contents of the dist/
directory have changed.
All HTML elements should be easily selectable by XPath. This means that appearances can be misleading. For example, consider this old bug:
<button
class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block mb-3"
id="approveTokensWithoutGas"
disabled
>
Approve Tokens Without Gas
</button>
This appears on the page as Approve Tokens Without Gas
. In reality, the value included the whitespace on the second line, and caused XPath queries for the intended value to fail.
The project follows the same release process as the other libraries in the MetaMask organization. The GitHub Actions action-create-release-pr
and action-publish-release
are used to automate the release process; see those repositories for more information about how they work.
-
Choose a release version.
- The release version should be chosen according to SemVer. Analyze the changes to see whether they include any breaking changes, new features, or deprecations, then choose the appropriate SemVer version. See the SemVer specification for more information.
-
If this release is backporting changes onto a previous release, then ensure there is a major version branch for that version (e.g.
1.x
for av1
backport release).- The major version branch should be set to the most recent release with that major version. For example, when backporting a
v1.0.2
release, you'd want to ensure there was a1.x
branch that was set to thev1.0.1
tag.
- The major version branch should be set to the most recent release with that major version. For example, when backporting a
-
Trigger the
workflow_dispatch
event manually for theCreate Release Pull Request
action to create the release PR.- For a backport release, the base branch should be the major version branch that you ensured existed in step 2. For a normal release, the base branch should be the main branch for that repository (which should be the default value).
- This should trigger the
action-create-release-pr
workflow to create the release PR.
-
Update the changelog to move each change entry into the appropriate change category (See here for the full list of change categories, and the correct ordering), and edit them to be more easily understood by users of the package.
- Generally any changes that don't affect consumers of the package (e.g. lockfile changes or development environment changes) are omitted. Exceptions may be made for changes that might be of interest despite not having an effect upon the published package (e.g. major test improvements, security improvements, improved documentation, etc.).
- Try to explain each change in terms that users of the package would understand (e.g. avoid referencing internal variables/concepts).
- Consolidate related changes into one change entry if it makes it easier to explain.
- Run
yarn auto-changelog validate --rc
to check that the changelog is correctly formatted.
-
Review and QA the release.
- If changes are made to the base branch, the release branch will need to be updated with these changes and review/QA will need to restart again. As such, it's probably best to avoid merging other PRs into the base branch while review is underway.
-
Squash & Merge the release.
- This should trigger the
action-publish-release
workflow to tag the final release commit and publish the release on GitHub.
- This should trigger the
-
Publish the release on npm.
- Wait for the
publish-release
GitHub Action workflow to finish. This should trigger a second job (publish-npm
), which will wait for a run approval by thenpm publishers
team. - Approve the
publish-npm
job (or ask somebody on the npm publishers team to approve it for you). - Once the
publish-npm
job has finished, check npm to verify that it has been published.
