3. Update or provide documentation for your changes
4. Create a Pull Request on GitHub

## Bot Identification Updates
To add or update the bot identification regular expressions defined in [bot_regex_patterns.txt](./src/bot_regex_patterns.txt), you can either [open an issue](https://github.com/BryanMorgan/isbot/issues/new/choose) or create a Pull Request using the same code change process defined above.

Use a similar process to update the bot or browser static or dynamic test data fixtures defined in the [test fixtures](./fixtures/).
