Development and Testing

Local testing:

$ go build
$ ./objective-c-style --input=test --output=output

Deploy a new version of the analyzer using CIPD:

$ make
$ cipd create -pkg-def=cipd.yaml
<outputs the VERSION>
$ cipd set-ref infra/tricium/function/objective-c-style -ref live -version VERSION

The update.sh script automates the above steps:

$ cd ..
$ update.sh objective-c-style
