Get to know MDK (Moodle development kit)
Philipp Memmel (DE+EN) / Luca Bösch
Not working on docker at Luca's device, but there should be general support? 
config.json to configure the setup
at least one database system is needed
"mdk fix MDL-XXXX" - checkout a new branch MDL-XXXXX-main
-> do the fix, commit it
"mdk push" -> this automatically updates the tracker!! (if the repo urls are filled out)
-> make sure, testing instructions are filled in the tracker issue
"mdk backport --versions 403 404" -> cherry-pick the fix for other versions
"mdk update --upgrade --all" -> update all local Moodle instances
"mdk behat --run --name 'xxx'" - needs selenium running
"mdk phpunit ... "
"mdk run -l " - see all available scripts
"mdk run version" - reset the database to original state - makes downgrade possible!!!!!!
