How to work on a Jasmine Release

Development

Jasmine Core Maintainers Only

Follow the instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md during development.

Git Rules

Please attempt to keep commits to main small, but cohesive. If a feature is contained in a bunch of small commits (e.g., it has several wip commits or small work), please squash them when pushing to main.

Version

We attempt to stick to Semantic Versioning. Most of the time, development should be against a new minor version - fixing bugs and adding new features that are backwards compatible.

The current version lives in the file /package.json. This version will be copied to jasmine.js when the distribution is built. When releasing a new version, update package.json with the new version and npm run build to update the gem version number.

Note that Jasmine should only use the "patch" version number if the new release contains only bug fixes.

When jasmine-core revs its major or minor version, the jasmine NPM package should also rev to that version.

Release

When ready to release - specs are all green and the stories are done:

  1. Update the release notes in release_notes - use the Anchorman gem to generate the markdown file and edit accordingly. Include a list of supported environments.
  2. Update the version in package.json
  3. Run npm run build.

Commit and push core changes

  1. Commit release notes and version changes (jasmine.js, package.json)
  2. Push
  3. Tag the release and push the tag.
  4. Wait for Circle CI to go green

Build standalone distribution

  1. Build the standalone distribution with grunt buildStandaloneDist
  2. This will generate dist/jasmine-standalone-<version>.zip, which you will upload later (see "Finally" below).

Release the core NPM module

  1. npm login to save your credentials locally
  2. npm publish . to publish what's in package.json

Release the docs

Probably only need to do this when releasing a minor version, and not a patch version. See the README file in the docs repo for instructions.

Release the jasmine NPM package

See https://github.com/jasmine/jasmine-npm/blob/main/RELEASE.md.

Publish the GitHub release

  1. Visit the releases page and find the tag just published.
  2. Paste in a link to the correct release notes for this release.
  3. If it is a pre-release, mark it as such.
  4. Attach the standalone zipfile.
