Session Topic: node-addon-api - test for success

[mhdawson]

Topic of the session
Help us broaden the set of tests used to validate node-addon-api. As the dependency on the ecosystem on this module continues to grow (~270k downloads a week and growing) come help build the safety net to make sure we can continue to make it better while ensuring we avoid breaking changes.

This is a good opportunity for those who know C/C++ but may be less familiar with JavaScript or those who are rusty with C/C++ but know JavaScript to contribute to Node.js on small focused task.

Project

node-addon-api is a project within the Node.js organization. It wraps the Node.js core C based N-API to provide a C++ API that is faster and easier to use from C++ code.

Describe the session

There is an existing list of small/manageable tests that we'd like to have added (nodejs/node-addon-api#332). Come work on one of this with the help of the team building node-addon-api. We hope you leave with a PR that helps the ecosystem.
