Summary: Before running the test suite, build wilde and run it on a local emulator. This takes about 15 mins on a lego-mac with a warm cache. It's probably worth splitting out the normal unit tests into a separate job, so we get quicker feedback on them. I'll do that in a separate diff. Lets run this for a while, and see how it goes, I'm wondering if it might get flaky because it will be building the master version of wilde, so potentially could be broken a lot, though it's passed evry time I've tried it so far. If it's reliable, we can run the same thing with loads of other apps in parallel. Reviewed By: passy Differential Revision: D10110408 fbshipit-source-id: 61c549eb1b9d04729dcb5ed01271a484af4777f5
Flipper 
Flipper, formerly Sonar, is currently in the process of being renamed. This may cause some inconsistencies until everything is in place. We apologize for any inconvience caused.
Flipper is a platform for debugging mobile apps on iOS and Android. Visualize, inspect, and control your apps from a simple desktop interface. Use Flipper as is or extend it using the plugin API.

Mobile development
Flipper aims to be your number one companion for mobile app development on iOS and Android. Therefore, we provide a bunch of useful tools including a log viewer, interactive layout inspector, and network inspector.
Extending Flipper
Flipper is built as a platform. In addition to using the tools already included, you can create your own plugins to visualize and debug data from your mobile apps. Flipper takes care of sending data back and forth, calling functions, and listening for events on the mobile app.
Contributing to Flipper
Both Flipper's desktop app and native mobile SDKs are open-source and MIT licensed. This enables you to see and understand how we are building plugins, and of course join the community and help improve Flipper. We are excited to see what you will build on this platform.
