pytest tests/ -vTest Requirements:
- New features must include unit tests
- Maintain minimum 80% code coverage
- Use pytest fixtures from
tests/conftest.py - Add
@pytest.mark.unitto unit tests - Add
@pytest.mark.asyncioto async tests - See TESTING.md for detailed testing guidelines
Automated Checks:
- GitHub Actions runs tests on Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11
- Pre-commit hooks available (run
pre-commit install) - All checks must pass before merging
- Adding new site definitions
- Improving detection algorithms
- Enhancing the GUI
- Writing documentation
- Performance optimizations
- Bug fixes
- Integrating advanced features into CLI/API
- For speed: Use
--mode aggressive --threads 50 - For stealth: Use
--mode stealth --timeout 30 - For reliability: Use
--mode standard --retry 3 - For specific needs: Create custom site lists
-
"No sites loaded" error
- Ensure you have internet connection
- Check if the sites directory exists
-
Slow performance
- Reduce thread count:
--threads 20 - Increase timeout:
--timeout 30 - Use a faster internet connection
- Reduce thread count:
-
Many errors
- The target platforms may be blocking requests
- Try using stealth mode
- Consider using proxies
- Check the GitHub Issues
- Review the example configurations
- Test with a simple search first
