Contributing to OCMock

First off, thanks for taking the time to contribute to OCMock!

The following is a set of guidelines for contributing to OCMock. These are just guidelines, not rules. Use your best judgment and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request.

This project adheres to the Contributor Covenant 1.2. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code.

Submitting issues

  • If you have a question about using OCMock, please do not open an issue. Ask the question on StackOverflow using the ocmock tag.

  • If you have encountered an issue or you want to suggest an enhancement, perform a cursory search to see if a similar issue has already been submitted.

  • When you submit an issue, please try to provide a minimal, complete, and verifiable example, ideally with a failing unit test. The easier it is to understand and reproduce the issue, the more likely it is that we can provide a fix.

  • Include the version of OCMock you are using. If applicable include names and versions of other testing frameworks involved.

  • Include stacktraces; they are immensely helpful.

Pull requests

  • Create all pull requests from master. Do not include other pull requests that have not been merged yet.

  • Limit each pull request to one feature. If you have made several changes, please submit multiple pull requests. Do not include seemingly trival changes, e.g. upgrading the Xcode version, in a pull request for a feature or bugfix.

  • If you add a new feature provide tests that specify how the feature works.

  • If you have to add files, please make sure that the code builds for the OS X framework and the iOS library using Xcode. Also try to make sure that the Cocoapod and Carthage builds work.

  • Respect the coding conventions (see below).

  • Do not include the number of a related issue in the title of a pull request. Give the pull request a descriptive title and reference any issues from the description.

  • Once you have created the pull request, an automated build is kicked off on Travis CI. Please verify after a few minutes that the build on the server succeeded. Pull requests with failing builds are ignored and will be closed within a few weeks if they are not fixed.

Coding conventions

Please remember that OCMock has been around for 10+ years. Some of the coding conventions used in OCMock may contradict modern guidelines. However, in the interest of keeping the codebase consistent, please respect the conventions used. In particular:

  • Opening and closing braces always go on a separate line.
  • No spaces between keywords like if and for and the following bracket.
  • No underscores for instance variables.
  • OCMock itself (framework and library) does not use ARC; retains and releases must be sent manually. The unit tests, however, do use ARC.
