file for testing, such as:

* Ensuring the entire API is importable
* Testing downstream projects against the wheel

Ensure you have Bazel installed and accessible from your command line.

These tests use hermetic Python. They also require a built TensorFlow wheel file
and a requirements_lock file. The requirements_lock file is generated by the

********************************************************************************

The CI folder contains the configuration files and scripts used to build, test,

[libraries](https://www.tensorflow.org/resources/libraries-extensions), and
[community](https://www.tensorflow.org/community) resources that lets
researchers push the state-of-the-art in ML and developers easily build and
deploy ML-powered applications.

TensorFlow was originally developed by researchers and engineers working within
the Machine Intelligence team at Google Brain to conduct research in machine

## TensorFlow's Official CI and Build/Test Scripts

TensorFlow's official CI jobs run the scripts in this folder. Our internal CI

# Experimental C++ Ops

The C++ files in this directory (***\*_ops.h*** and ***\*_ops.cc***) are
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.

# Hermetic Python

Hermetic Python allows not to rely on system-installed Python, and
system-installed Python packages. \
Instead, an independent Python toolchain is registered, ensuring the right
dependencies are always used. \
See https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_python/ for more details.

### Specifying the Python version

Note: Only a number of minor Python versions are supported at any given time.
