39Bitbake has a testsuite located in lib/bb/tests/ whichs aim to try and prevent regressions.
40You can run this with "bitbake-selftest". In particular the fetcher is well covered since
41it has so many corner cases. The datastore has many tests too. Testing with the testsuite is
42recommended becore submitting patches, particularly to the fetcher and datastore. We also
43appreciate new test cases and may require them for more obscure issues.
