Install your local copy of Fandango:</p>

</pre></div>
</div>
<p>To install additional dependencies for unit tests, code checks, running the evaluation, and building the Fandango book, install Fandango like this (or with the subsection of dependencies you need):</p>
<div class="highlight-shell notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>python<span class="w"> </span>-m<span class="w"> </span>pip<span class="w"> </span>install<span class="w"> </span>-e<span class="w"> </span><span class="s2">".[test,development,evaluation,book]"</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<div class="admonition tip">
<p class="admonition-title">Tip</p>
<p>If subsequent tests fails due to dependency breakage, use <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">uv</span></code> to create the virtual environment with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">uv.lock</span></code>, which provides a snapshot of the dependencies that are tested on our CI:</p>

<div class="highlight-shell notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">hash</span><span class="w"> </span>-r
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>That’s it! You just have installed your personal copy of Fandango.
You can invoke it as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">fandango</span></code> and can alter its code as you like.</p>
</section>

<section id="running-tests">
<span id="sec-running-tests"></span><h2>Running Tests<a class="headerlink" href="#running-tests" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h2>
<p>Running the full test suite can take a while, and usually is not necessary when
preparing a pull request.
Once you file a pull request, the full test suite will run on GitHub.
You’ll then be able to see any test failures, and make any necessary changes to
your pull request.</p>
<p>However, if you wish to do so, you can run the full test suite
like this:</p>
<div class="highlight-shell notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>make<span class="w"> </span>tests
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>or simply</p>
<div class="highlight-shell notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>pytest
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>To run tests in parallel, you can use <a class="reference external" href="https://pytest-xdist.readthedocs.io/en/stable/">pytest-xdist</a> (installed with the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">test</span></code> dependencies):</p>
<div class="highlight-shell notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>pytest<span class="w"> </span>-n<span class="w"> </span>auto

</div>
<p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">uv.lock</span></code> is a snapshot of the (actual) dependencies used in this project.

<p>If you’re looking for things to help with, browse our <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/fandango-fuzzer/fandango/issues">issue tracker</a>!</p>
<p>You do not need to ask for permission to work on any of these issues.
Just fix the issue yourself, <a class="reference internal" href="#sec-running-tests"><span class="std std-ref">try to add a unit test</span></a> and open a pull request.</p>
<p>To get help fixing a specific issue, it’s often best to comment on the issue itself.
You’re much more likely to get help if you provide details about what you’ve tried and where you’ve looked (maintainers tend to help those who help themselves).</p>

<p>Even more excellent than a good bug report is a fix for a bug, or the implementation of a much-needed new feature.
We’d love to have your contributions.</p>
<p>We use the usual GitHub pull-request flow, which may be familiar to you if you’ve contributed to other projects on GitHub.
For the mechanics, see <a class="reference external" href="https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/">GitHub’s own documentation</a>.</p>
<p>Anyone interested in Fandango may review your code.
One of the Fandango core developers will merge your pull request when they think it’s ready.</p>
<p>If your change will be a significant amount of work to write, we highly recommend starting by opening an issue laying out
what you want to do.
That lets a conversation happen early in case other contributors disagree with what you’d like to do or have ideas that will help you do it.</p>
<p>The best pull requests are focused, clearly describe what they’re for and why they’re correct, and contain tests for whatever changes they make to the code’s behavior.
As a bonus these are easiest for someone to review, which helps your pull request get merged quickly!
Standard advice about good pull requests for open-source projects applies.</p>

<h3>Changing Parser Files<a class="headerlink" href="#changing-parser-files" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h3>
<p>If your contribution involves changing the ANTLR <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.g4</span></code> parser files,
you need to <em>regenerate</em> and <em>recompile</em> the parser code.
For this, you need a C++ compiler such as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">clang</span></code>.</p>
<section id="step-1-generate-the-parser-code">
<h4>Step 1: Generate the parser code<a class="headerlink" href="#step-1-generate-the-parser-code" title="Link to this heading">#</a></h4>
<p>To (re)generate the parser code, use</p>
<div class="highlight-shell notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$<span class="w"> </span>make<span class="w"> </span>parser
</pre></div>

<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pip</span></code> command takes care of (re)compiling the parser code.
