Hi,

I want to inquire about how FreeType devs, whenever they are fixing a bug
or adding a new feature, code and test the new additions?

I have the following approach in mind:

- Code the new stuff in the repo
- Write a program (with a `main' function) that will eventually trigger the
"newly added" part somehow.
- Use GDB to set a break point on the "newly added" part and then step
through it and confirm whether everything works or not.
- Repeat

This approach feels slow because for each new modification, the library as
well as the program that uses it will have to be rebuilt. Is this the right
approach? Is there a better one? Please let me know.

Thanks,

Moazin
