Wire your tests to a documented command (e.g. a test script in your build config) so the suite is reproducible.
- 2CI/CD14pt
If your CI lives elsewhere (a private repo that builds this one) or this project is itself a CI/CD tool, mark this check Not Applicable. Otherwise add a GitHub Actions workflow that runs tests on each push. It takes 15 minutes and reassures contributors their changes won't break things.
- 3Install and run instructions9pt
Add a .env.example listing all required environment variables so contributors know what to set up.
- 4Reproducibility6pt
Add .github/dependabot.yml with at least one package-ecosystem entry so dependencies are updated automatically.
Working through the fixes? Let every push regrade itself.
The free GitHub App rescans this repo on every push and posts the grade as a commit check, so the score climbs without coming back to rescan by hand.
