    - Please write additional tests covering your feature and adjust existing ones if needed before submitting your pull request. The `validatePullRequest` sbt task ([explained below](#the-validatepullrequest-task)) may come in handy to verify your changes are correct.
    - Use the `verifyCodeStyle` sbt task to ensure your code is properly formatted and includes the proper copyright headers.
 1. Once your feature is complete, prepare the commit following our [Creating Commits And Writing Commit Messages](#creating-commits-and-writing-commit-messages). For example, a good commit message would be: `Adding compression support for Manifests #22222` (note the reference to the ticket it aimed to resolve).

     - Please make sure to include a reference to the issue you're solving *in the comment* for the Pull Request, as this will cause the PR to be linked properly with the issue. Examples of good phrases for this are: "Resolves #1234" or "Refs #1234".

 Special care should be given to `expectNoMessage` calls, which indeed will wait for the entire timeout before continuing. Therefore a shorter timeout should be used in those, for example `200.millis` or `300.millis`. Prefer the method without timeout parameter, which will use the configured `expect-no-message-default` timeout.
