Guidence regarding package testing and patching

[jvk <jaivkadam@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I recently joined the Debian community :)

I wanted some help in package development. So, once a package is
successfully built using the dpkg-buildpackage command we certainly
need to run some debian tests right? how?

And if it fails those test how to patch them?


Also i had this doubt am i correct in the understanding of the workfolw
-first get the current debianized package
-install the deps which are in control file of the package
- dpk-source -> i think this applies the chages form them the tar ball
of version 2 to the folder containing version 1 source code and the
pathces also
- dpk-buildpakage -> builds the .deb file along with some other files
