If you have a bugfix or a new feature you want to contribute, please fork on Github and make your own feature branch:
git clone git@github.com:you/cucumber-rails.git git checkout -b 87-add-chinese-translation
The feature branch should contain a ticket number (if appliccable) and a descriptive name that aligns with the ticket name.
Before you change anything, you should make sure you can run all the Cucumber features for Cucumber-Rails. The first time you clone the repo you may have to install Rails for all of the Ruby versions we’re testing against. For this you need RVM:
sudo gem install rvm rvm install 1.8.7 1.9.1
In order to avoid conflicts we’ll use RVM’s gem sets to set up a gem set for each combination of Ruby version and Rails version to be tested against. Open platforms.yml and modify the rubies section if you have different patchlevels for the rubies.
Installing the various gem sets is done with the following command:
rake gemsets:install
This will take 10-15 minutes to complete, as there are many gems to download. After you have done this once you shouldn’t have to do it again (unless future versions require new gems).
