I'm a gem author, how do I participate?

Create (and add to your files section in your specification) a .gemtest empty file. This is what signals the rubygems-test engine to process your gem as testable.

Ensure rake test works and doesn’t wipe out filesystems, databases, etc. Move those tests to another task.

Be sure to include your Rakefile in your gem, along with your tests.

Be sure to note any development dependencies that will be required for executing your rakefile and your tests in your gemspec. They will be installed as a part of the testing process.
