FAQPage Schema
How do I run GitHub Actions checks locally before pushing code?

Local GitHub Actions checks validate npm test, npm run lint, and tsc --noEmit commands using your project's existing tooling. This mirrors CI feedback during feature development or PR preparation to catch failures early before pushing code.

Can I run lint and type-check failures locally to match my CI pipeline?

Yes, local checks execute lint and type-check commands like npm run lint and tsc --noEmit to match CI results. Honoring workflow file hints ensures local validation accurately mirrors pipeline behavior.

What is the best way to catch test failures during feature development without waiting for CI?

Run GitHub Actions pipeline checks locally after significant code changes to catch test failures fast. This provides immediate local feedback that mirrors CI validation without waiting for remote pipeline execution.

Does running local checks require specific dependencies or workflow configurations?

No specific dependencies are required to run local checks. The process utilizes the project's existing tooling and honors workflow file hints to execute validation commands like npm test and tsc --noEmit.

When should I run local CI feedback checks during PR preparation?

Run local CI feedback checks during PR preparation after making significant code changes. Validating tests, lint, and type-checks locally ensures your local feedback mirrors CI and prevents unexpected pipeline failures.
