+## Build and Test
+Use `yarn` to build and test these extensions. All `yarn` scripts are specified in the `package.json` file. Run `yarn run` to get a prompt of all the targets. The most important are:
+
+1. `install`: install dependencies in root folder.
+1. `install-libs` install dependencies in each Task folder (required since each task has to be self-contained).
+1. `test` to run tests.
+1. `debugtest` to run tests with verbose logging.
+1. `cover` to run tests with code coverage.
+1. `prepextension` to run `install` and `coverage` (used to package the extension in the build).
