Stuck on an issue?

And, if you’re still stuck at the end, we’re happy to hop on a call to see how we can help out.

Unit tests

See original GitHub issue

We need this for stability and to prevent regressions. Luckily, we already have a CI, so running tests is just one more command to run.

Things to discuss:

where to start (might be a good idea to look into how other popular electron projects did this, and I know many didn’t at all)
testing framework and support libs (jasmine or ava, plus karma, sinon, also really need to look into spectron)
how to test (need to separate main process tests and browser-side tests)
