Although django-helpdesk has originally been written for the English language, there are already multiple translations to Spanish, Polish, and German and more translations are welcomed.

Translations are handled using the excellent Transifex service which is much easier for most users than manually editing .po files. It also allows collaborative translation. If you want to help translate django-helpdesk into languages other than English, we encourage you to make use of our Transifex project:

Wherever possible please break git commits up into small chunks that are specific to a single bit of functionality. For example, a commit should not contain both new functionality *and* a bugfix; the new function and the bugfix should be separate commits wherever possible.

Tests
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, test coverage is very low. We're working on increasing this, and to make life easier we are using `Travis CI` (http://travis-ci.org/) for continuous integration. This means that the test suite is run every time a code change is made, so we can try and make sure we avoid basic bugs and other regressions.

As a general policy, we will only accept new feature commits if they are accompanied by appropriate unit/functional tests (that is, tests for the functionality you just added). Bugfixes should also include new unit tests to ensure the bug has been fixed.

|

|

More significant code refactoring must also include proper integration or validation tests, to be committed BEFORE the refactoring patches. This is to ensure that the refactored code produces the same results as the previous code base.
