-Running Tests
-==================
-Pluma has several test that can be run after compilation. Run them by issueing "make check". However there are a couple of requirements that need to be satisfied before they will pass.
-
-* You need the gsettings schemas installed for some tests to be able to run.
-* You need to mount sftp://localhost/ with gvfs-mount for one test to pass.
-
-If test fail and you have setup the above correctly then please file a bug report as described below.
-
-How to report bugs
-==================
-
-Bugs should be reported to the MATE bug tracking system:
-
- https://github.com/mate-desktop/pluma/issues
-
-You will need to create an account for yourself.
-
-In the bug report please include:
-
-* Information about your system. For instance:
-
- - What operating system and version
- - What version of X
- - What version of the gtk+, glib and mate libraries
- - For Linux, what version of the C library
-
- And anything else you think is relevant.
-
-* How to reproduce the bug.
-
-* If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out when the
- crash occurred.
-
-* Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but is not
- necessary. If you do send a stack trace, and the error is an X error,
- it will be more useful if the stack trace is produced running the test
- program with the --sync command line option.
