Since the engelsystem is open source, you can help to improve the system. We really love to get pull requests containing fixes or implementations of our Github issues.
If a database is configured and the engelsystem is allowed to mess around with some files, you can run feature tests. The tests can potentially delete some database entries, so they should never be run on a production system!
```bash
vendor/bin/phpunit --testsuite Feature
# or for unit- and feature tests:
vendor/bin/phpunit
```
### CI & Build Pipeline
The engelsystem can be tested and automatically deployed to a testing/staging/production environment.
This functionality requires a [GitLab](https://about.gitlab.com/) server with a running docker minion.
To use the deployment features the following secret variables need to be defined (if undefined the step will be skipped):
```bash
SSH_PRIVATE_KEY # The ssh private key
STAGING_REMOTE # The staging server, e.g. user@remote.host
