Building the extension
Dependencies
Install grunt-cli globally:
npm install -g grunt-cli

npm install
Build
This will generate a dist
directory at the root of the project. This is used when creating a published version, and
can also be run as an unpacked extension.
grunt build
Testing
Node
Run the node-based tests:
node tests/node/all-tests.js
Browser
Run the browser-based tests:

NOTE: Browser tests should be served through a web server. The exact URL may vary.
All tests with reports
Run all the tests and generate reports which can be viewed in the browser from the "reports" directory:
# run on the host machine
npm test
# run in a vagrant vm
npm run test:vagrant

- Navigate to the directory in which your local copy of the extension lives, and select the
