What is Unobtanium?

----------------



Unobtanium is an experimental new digital currency that enables instant payments to

anyone, anywhere in the world. Unobtanium uses peer-to-peer technology to operate

with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried

out collectively by the network. Unobtanium is the name of open source

software which enables the use of this currency.



For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of

the Unobtanium software, see https://www.unobtanium.uno.



License

-------



Unobtanium is released under the terms of the MIT license. See [COPYING](COPYING) for more

information or see http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.



Development process

-------------------



Developers work in their own trees, then submit pull requests when they think

their feature or bug fix is ready.



If it is a simple/trivial/non-controversial change, then one of the Unobtanium

development team members simply pulls it.



If it is a *more complicated or potentially controversial* change, then the patch

submitter will be asked to start a discussion (if they haven't already) on CryptoCoinTalk.



The patch will be accepted if there is broad consensus that it is a good thing.

Developers should expect to rework and resubmit patches if the code doesn't

match the project's coding conventions (see [doc/developer-notes.md](doc/developer-notes.md)) or are

controversial.



The `master` branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be

completely stable. [Tags](https://github.com/unobtanium-official/unobtanium/tags) are created

regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Unobtanium.



Testing

-------



Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull

requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing

other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people

lots of money.



### Automated Testing



Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to

submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: `make check`



Every pull request is built for both Windows and Linux on a dedicated server,

and unit and sanity tests are automatically run. The binaries produced may be

used for manual QA testing — a link to them will appear in a comment on the

pull request posted by /test-scripts

for the build/test scripts.



### Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing



Large changes should have a test plan, and should be tested by somebody other

than the developer who wrote the code.
