Woocommerce Dev Cycle

WooCommerce Development Cycle

This skill provides guidance for the WooCommerce development workflow, including running tests, code quality checks, and troubleshooting.

Instructions

Follow these guidelines for WooCommerce development workflow:

1. Running tests: See running-tests.md for PHP and JavaScript test commands, test environment setup, and troubleshooting
2. Code quality: See code-quality.md for linting and code style fixes
3. PHP linting patterns: See php-linting-patterns.md for common PHP linting issues and fixes
4. JS/TS i18n patterns: See js-i18n-patterns.md for translatable string patterns and placeholder usage
5. Markdown linting: See markdown-linting.md for markdown file linting and formatting

Development Workflow

The standard development workflow:

1. Make code changes
2. Run relevant tests: pnpm run test:php:env -- --filter YourTestClass
3. Run linting/type checking: pnpm run lint:changes:branch:php
4. Fix any issues: pnpm run lint:php:fix
5. Commit changes only after tests pass

Key Principles

• Always run tests after making changes to verify functionality
• Use specific test filters to run relevant tests during development
• Fix linting errors solely for code in your current branch
• Test failures provide detailed output showing expected vs actual values
• The test environment handles WordPress/WooCommerce setup automatically
