+## Testing
+
+The build automatically runs the following:
+
+* make sure the built-in packages compile
+* `pxt run` in `libs/lang-test*` - this will run the test in command line runner; 
+  there is a number of asserts in both of these
+* `pxt testdir` in `tests` - this makes sure all the files compile and generates .hex files
+* run the TD->TS converter on a number of test scripts from `microbit.co.uk` and make sure the results compile
+
+To test something on the device:
+
+* do a `pxt deploy` in `libs/lang-test*` - they should show `1` or `2` on the screen (and not unhappy face)
+* run `pxt testdir` in `tests` and deploy some of the hex files from `tests/built`
+
+The `lang-test0` source comes from the `pxt-core` package. It's also tested with `pxt run` there.

+    Microsoft ResX Schema 
+    
+    Version 2.0
+    
+    The primary goals of this format is to allow a simple XML format 
+    that is mostly human readable. The generation and parsing of the 
+    various data types are done through the TypeConverter classes 
+    associated with the data types.
+    
+    Example:
+    
+    ... ado.net/XML headers & schema ...
+    <resheader name="resmimetype">text/microsoft-resx</resheader>
+    <resheader name="version">2.0</resheader>
+    <resheader name="reader">System.Resources.ResXResourceReader, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
+    <resheader name="writer">System.Resources.ResXResourceWriter, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
+    <data name="Name1"><value>this is my long string</value><comment>this is a comment</comment></data>
+    <data name="Color1" type="System.Drawing.Color, System.Drawing">Blue</data>
+    <data name="Bitmap1" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64">
+        <value>[base64 mime encoded serialized .NET Framework object]</value>
+    </data>
+    <data name="Icon1" type="System.Drawing.Icon, System.Drawing" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64">
+        <value>[base64 mime encoded string representing a byte array form of the .NET Framework object]</value>
+        <comment>This is a comment</comment>
+    </data>
+                
+    There are any number of "resheader" rows that contain simple 
+    name/value pairs.
+    
+    Each data row contains a name, and value. The row also contains a 
+    type or mimetype. Type corresponds to a .NET class that support 
+    text/value conversion through the TypeConverter architecture. 
+    Classes that don't support this are serialized and stored with the 
+    mimetype set.
+    
+    The mimetype is used for serialized objects, and tells the 
+    ResXResourceReader how to depersist the object. This is currently not

+    Microsoft ResX Schema 
+    
+    Version 2.0
+    
+    The primary goals of this format is to allow a simple XML format 
+    that is mostly human readable. The generation and parsing of the 
+    various data types are done through the TypeConverter classes 
+    associated with the data types.
+    
+    Example:
+    
+    ... ado.net/XML headers & schema ...
+    <resheader name="resmimetype">text/microsoft-resx</resheader>
+    <resheader name="version">2.0</resheader>
+    <resheader name="reader">System.Resources.ResXResourceReader, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
+    <resheader name="writer">System.Resources.ResXResourceWriter, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
+    <data name="Name1"><value>this is my long string</value><comment>this is a comment</comment></data>
+    <data name="Color1" type="System.Drawing.Color, System.Drawing">Blue</data>
+    <data name="Bitmap1" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64">
+        <value>[base64 mime encoded serialized .NET Framework object]</value>
+    </data>
+    <data name="Icon1" type="System.Drawing.Icon, System.Drawing" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64">
+        <value>[base64 mime encoded string representing a byte array form of the .NET Framework object]</value>
+        <comment>This is a comment</comment>
+    </data>
+                
+    There are any number of "resheader" rows that contain simple 
+    name/value pairs.
+    
+    Each data row contains a name, and value. The row also contains a 
+    type or mimetype. Type corresponds to a .NET class that support 
+    text/value conversion through the TypeConverter architecture. 
+    Classes that don't support this are serialized and stored with the 
+    mimetype set.
+    
+    The mimetype is used for serialized objects, and tells the 
+    ResXResourceReader how to depersist the object. This is currently not 
+    extensible. For a given mimetype the value must be set accordingly:
+    
+    Note - application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64 is the format 
+    that the ResXResourceWriter will generate, however the reader can 
+    read any of the formats listed below.
+    
+    mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64
+    value   : The object must be serialized with 
+            : System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter
+            : and then encoded with base64 encoding.
+    
+    mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.soap.base64
+    value   : The object must be serialized with 
+            : System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Soap.SoapFormatter
+            : and then encoded with base64 encoding.
+
+    mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64
+    value   : The object must be serialized into a byte array 
+            : using a System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter
+            : and then encoded with base64 encoding.

+    
+    Version 2.0
+    
+    The primary goals of this format is to allow a simple XML format 
+    that is mostly human readable. The generation and parsing of the 
+    various data types are done through the TypeConverter classes 
+    associated with the data types.
+    
+    Example:
+    
+    ... ado.net/XML headers & schema ...
+    <resheader name="resmimetype">text/microsoft-resx</resheader>
+    <resheader name="version">2.0</resheader>
+    <resheader name="reader">System.Resources.ResXResourceReader, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
+    <resheader name="writer">System.Resources.ResXResourceWriter, System.Windows.Forms, ...</resheader>
+    <data name="Name1"><value>this is my long string</value><comment>this is a comment</comment></data>
+    <data name="Color1" type="System.Drawing.Color, System.Drawing">Blue</data>
+    <data name="Bitmap1" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64">
+        <value>[base64 mime encoded serialized .NET Framework object]</value>
+    </data>
+    <data name="Icon1" type="System.Drawing.Icon, System.Drawing" mimetype="application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64">
+        <value>[base64 mime encoded string representing a byte array form of the .NET Framework object]</value>
+        <comment>This is a comment</comment>
+    </data>
+                
+    There are any number of "resheader" rows that contain simple 
+    name/value pairs.
+    
+    Each data row contains a name, and value. The row also contains a 
+    type or mimetype. Type corresponds to a .NET class that support 
+    text/value conversion through the TypeConverter architecture. 
+    Classes that don't support this are serialized and stored with the 
+    mimetype set.
+    
+    The mimetype is used for serialized objects, and tells the 
+    ResXResourceReader how to depersist the object. This is currently not 
+    extensible. For a given mimetype the value must be set accordingly:
+    
+    Note - application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64 is the format 
+    that the ResXResourceWriter will generate, however the reader can 
+    read any of the formats listed below.
+    
+    mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.binary.base64
+    value   : The object must be serialized with 
+            : System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.BinaryFormatter
+            : and then encoded with base64 encoding.
+    
+    mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.soap.base64
+    value   : The object must be serialized with 
+            : System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Soap.SoapFormatter
+            : and then encoded with base64 encoding.
+
+    mimetype: application/x-microsoft.net.object.bytearray.base64
+    value   : The object must be serialized into a byte array 
+            : using a System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter
+            : and then encoded with base64 encoding.

+In the screen above, we created a checkerboard pattern using the LEDs.
 
 ### Which LED?
 
-You use ``x , y`` coordinates to specify a particular LED in the grid; where ``x`` is the horizontal position and ``y`` is the vertical position (0, 1, 2, 3, 4). To figure out the ``x``, ``y`` coordinates, position your micro:bit horizontally, like a credit card (see picture above).

 ### Row, column - 1
 
-Since the row and column numbers start at 0, an easy way to figure out the x, y coordinates is to subtract 1 from the row and column number (when counting from 1). In other words, to specify the LED in the 4th column 5th row, subtract 1 from each number to get coordinates `3, 4`.

-## Inputs
-
-### Button A and B
-
-Unshuffle the blocks so that the micro:bit shows "YES" when button A is pressed, and "NO" when B is pressed. 
-The key idea is that all the blocks nested under `on button ... pressed` will run when that button is pressed.
-
-```blocks
-input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
-    basic.showString("AAAAA");
-});
-```
-
-Try to unshuffle those blocks:
-```shuffle
-input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
-    basic.showString("YES");
-});
-input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
-    basic.showString("NO");
-});
-```
-
-### Shake
-
-Using the data from the **accelerometer**, it is possible to detect that the BBC micro:bit is being shaken.
-
-Unshuffle the code to display a frownie when shaken.
-```shuffle
-input.onGesture(Gesture.Shake, () => {
-    basic.showLeds(`
-. . . . .
-. # . # .
-. . . . .
-. # # # .
-# . . . #`);
-});
-```
-
-### Tilting
-
-Aside from shake, it is also possible to detect tilt left and right, logo up and down or face up and down.
-Let's build a rock paper scissors game where you turn the micro:bit left to display paper, right to display scissors and down to display rock.
-
-Unshuffle and try this code on the micro:bit itself!
-```shuffle
-input.onGesture(Gesture.TiltLeft, () => {
-    basic.showLeds(`
-# # # # #
-# . . . #
-# . . . #
-# . . . #
-# # # # #`);
-});
-input.onGesture(Gesture.LogoDown, () => {
-    basic.showLeds(`
-. . . . .
-. # # # .
-. # # # .

-    basic.showLeds(`
-# # . . #
-# # . # .
-. . # . .
-# # . # .
-# # . . #`);
-});
-```
-
-### Pins
-
-It is possible to use the pins (big metal bar at the bottom of the board) as button. Hold the ``GND`` button with one hand and press the ``0`` pin 
-(called ``P0``) with the other hand to trigger a pin pressed.
-
-Unshuffle the blocks to display a smiley when pin ``P0`` is pressed.
-```shuffle
