# Gluster
Gluster is a software defined distributed storage that can scale to several
petabytes. It provides interfaces for object, block and file storage.
## Development
Contributions to gluster in the form of patches and new feature additions can
be made by following steps outlined at [Developers Guide](http://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Developer-guide/Developers-Index/#contributing-to-the-gluster-community).
## Documentation
The Gluster documentation can be found at [Gluster Docs](http://docs.gluster.org).
## Deployment
Quick instructions to build and install can be found in [INSTALL](INSTALL) file.
## Testing
GlusterFS source contains some functional tests under `tests/` directory. All
these tests are run against every patch submitted for review. If you want your
patch to be tested, please add a `.t` test file as part of your patch submission.
You can also submit a patch to only add a `.t` file for the test case you are
aware of.
To run these tests, on your test-machine, just run `./run-tests.sh`. Don't run
this on a machine where you have 'production' glusterfs is running, as it would
blindly kill all gluster processes in each runs.
If you are sending a patch, and want to validate one or few specific tests, then
run a single test by running the below command.
```
bash# /bin/bash ${path_to_gluster}/tests/basic/rpc-coverage.t
```
You can also use `prove` tool if available in your machine, as follows.
```
bash# prove -vmfe '/bin/bash' ${path_to_gluster}/tests/basic/rpc-coverage.t
```
