Description
I'm with the Software Engineering Research Group at the TU Delft, and I am investigating automations. I have looked at your repository and which GitHub workflows and Maven plugins you are using. I'll give you a quick summary of what I found, and the automation tasks I recommend you to focus on next (:

And now? Next steps!
It is not always clear which automation tasks should be prioritized. It is however important to balance your automation efforts, as a uniform level of maturity is most productive. I'm here to help! Below is a list of tasks that you can work on to help level up your maturity across the automation domains:
- Implement Package management; implemented by 36% of GitHub repositories
- Implement Run tests; implemented by 23% of GitHub repositories
What do you think?
Do you think my analysis is correct, do these recommendations help you? Or have I missed something?
For my master's thesis I'm doing research into the use of automations in GitHub repositories. With my findings, I want to see if I can help out developers with what automations they could focus on. Do you want to help me out? Leaving a response is much appreciated!
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Review the repository's GitHub workflows and Maven plugins against the automation analysis and its linked thesis wiki sections. Start with the recommended Package management and Run tests tasks, then determine whether the findings are correct or omit important automation. Done means recording a clear response or actionable follow-up, but the issue does not name implementation files or tests.
