Hey, we're just getting started, but there'll be stuff here soon. Check the issue list as quasi-roadmap and feel free to jump into the Gitter room linked above. See this blog post http://jeremydmiller.com/2015/10/21/postgresql-as-a-document-db-for-net-development/ for more information

Like I said, it's way, way early and this should get smoother later. For now, you'll need to have access to a Postgresql 9.5 server and a database. After cloning the code, put a file named connection.txt at src/Marten.Testing that just needs to contain the connection string to the Postgresql database you want to use as a testbed. See the Npgsql documentation for more information about postgresql connection strings.

Once you have the codebase and the connection.txt file, either:

• Run the rake script
• From a command line at the root of the codebase, run paket install to fetch all the nuget dependencies

From there, open Visual Studio.Net or whatever editor you prefer and go to town.

We're using Fixie and Shouldly for unit testing and paket for improved Nuget workflow. We're temporarily using rake for build automation.

We're also using Storyteller for some of the very data intensive automated tests. To open the Storyteller editor, use the command rake open_st from the command line or rake storyeller to run the Storyteller specs.
