Issues and Bugs

If you have a bug report or idea for improvement, please create an issue on GitHub, or a pull request with the fix.

Code Reviews

All pull requests are subject to professional code review. If you do not want your code reviewed, do not submit it.

Contributors

See installation instructions for details on installing boofuzz from source with developer options.

Pull Request Checklist

  1. Install python version 2.7.9+ and 3.6+

  2. Verify tests pass:

    tox

    Note

    (Re-)creating a tox environment on Linux requires root rights because some of your unit tests work with raw sockets. tox will check if cap_net_admin and cap_net_raw+eip are set on the tox environment python interpreter and if not, will do so.

    Once the capabilities have been set, running tox won't need extended permissions.

    Attention!

    If the tests pass, check the output for new flake8 warnings that indicate PEP8 violations.

  3. Format the code to meet our code style requirements (needs python 3.6+):

    black .

    Use # fmt: off and # fmt: on around a block to disable formatting locally.

  4. If you have PyCharm, use it to see if your changes introduce any new static analysis warnings.

  5. Modify CHANGELOG.rst to say what you changed.

  6. If adding a new module, consider adding it to the Sphinx docs (see docs folder).
