### Prerequisites for Local Testing

To run tests locally, follow these steps:

1.  Navigate to the relevant directory:
    ```
    cd ci/official/wheel_test
    ```
2.  Run a script for creating requirements file:
    ```
    bash update_requirements.sh <path_to_tensorflow_wheel> <python_version>
    e.g.:

    desired TensorFlow version, for example, branch `r2.8` for version 2.8.
*   Apply (that is, cherry-pick) the desired changes and resolve any code
    conflicts.
*   Run TensorFlow tests and ensure they pass.
*   [Build](https://www.tensorflow.org/install/source) the TensorFlow pip
    package from source.

## Continuous build status

TensorFlow's official CI jobs run the scripts in this folder. Our internal CI
system, Kokoro, schedules our CI jobs by combining a build script with a file
from the `envs` directory that is filled with configuration options:

-   Nightly jobs (Run nightly on the `nightly` branch)
    -   Uses `wheel.sh`, `libtensorflow.sh`, `code_check_full.sh`
-   Continuous jobs (Run on every GitHub commit)
    -   Uses `pycpp.sh`

autogenerated from the registered Op and API definitions.

To regenerate them, run the script in this directory, `update_cpp_ops.sh`, with
no arguments. This script will overwrite the existing ops in-place at
***tensorflow/c/experimental/ops/\*_ops.{cc,h}***.

Run this `update_cpp_ops.sh` script when Op definitions change in the registry.

4) Add the version to `SUPPORTED_VERSIONS` in `updater.sh`, and
   `release_updater.sh`

5) Run the `updater.sh` shell script. \
   If the base requirements file hasn't yet been updated to account for the new
   Python version, which will require different versions for at least some
   dependencies, it will need to be updated now, for the script to run
   successfully.
