# Node.js Core Tests

This directory contains code and data used to test the Node.js implementation.

For a detailed guide on how to write tests in this
directory, see [the guide on writing tests](../doc/contributing/writing-tests.md).

On how to run tests in this directory, see
[the contributing guide](../doc/contributing/pull-requests.md#step-6-test).

For the tests to run on Windows, be sure to clone Node.js source code with the
`autocrlf` git config flag set to true.

[^2]: Tests for networking related modules may also be present in other directories, but those tests do
    not make outbound connections.

[^3]: All tests inside of this directory are expected to fail. If a test doesn't fail on certain platforms,
    those should be skipped via `known_issues.status`.

[^4]: The tests are for the logic in `lib/internal/v8_prof_processor.js` and `lib/internal/v8_prof_polyfill.js`.
    The tests confirm that the profile processor packages the correct set of scripts from V8 and introduces the
    correct platform specific logic.
