 You can run the linter by itself with `yarn lint`, and you can automatically fix some lint problems with `yarn lint:fix`. You can also run these two commands just on your local changes to save time with `yarn lint:changed` and `yarn lint:changed:fix` respectively.

+## Running a Jest test
+
+```bash

+
+## Debugging
+
+### Debugging Jest in VS Code
+
+1. Open **VS Code**
+2. Open the “Run and Debug” panel (⇧⌘D)
+3. Click the “JavaScript Debug Terminal” button to open the Terminal
+4. Run Jest using Node
+
+    ```bash
+    > yarn jest --watch <path>
+    ```
+
+Additional methods and information to debug in VS Code can be found [here](https://jestjs.io/docs/troubleshooting#debugging-in-vs-code)
+
+### Debugging Jest on Chrome DevTools
+
+1. Run Jest using Node with the V8 Inspector
+
+    ```bash
+    > node --inspect ./node_modules/.bin/jest --watch -i <path>
+
+    or
+
+    > node --inspect ./node_modules/.bin/jest <path>
+    ```
+
+    **Options:**
+
+    ```jsx
+    node:
+
+    			--inspect=[host:]port
+                 Activate inspector on host:port.  Default is 127.0.0.1:9229.
+
+                 V8 Inspector integration allows attaching Chrome DevTools and IDEs
+    						 to Node.js instances for debugging and profiling.  It uses the
+    						 Chrome DevTools Protocol.
+
+    jest:
+
+    			--watch                       Watch files for changes and rerun tests
+                                        related to changed files. If you want to
+                                        re-run all tests when a file has changed,
+                                        use the `--watchAll` option.       [boolean]

+                                        of child processes that run tests). This is
+                                        sometimes useful for debugging, but such use
