Local Testing

Use this checklist to validate Arcane changes locally before pushing.

1. Install Dependencies

npm install

2. Run Unit Tests

npm test

3. CLI Smoke Test

tmpdir=$(mktemp -d)
node bin/arcane.js init "$tmpdir/bot" --yes
cd "$tmpdir/bot"
node /home/ramkrishna0/Desktop/arcane-builder/bin/arcane.js validate

If validation passes, generated template and schemas are consistent.

4. Runtime Connectivity Check

arcane dev

Expected behavior:

• Bot logs in successfully
• Commands are loaded
• Slash commands are registered

5. Docs Build Check

python -m pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
mkdocs build --strict

Recommended Pre-Push Gate

1. npm test
2. mkdocs build --strict
