#### Building an ASAN build
[ASAN](https://github.com/google/sanitizers) can help detect various memory
related bugs. ASAN builds are currently only supported on linux.
If you want to check it on Windows or macOS or you want a consistent toolchain
on Linux, you can try [Docker](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop)
(using an image like `gengjiawen/node-build:2020-02-14`).
The `--debug` is not necessary and will slow down build and testing, but it can
show clear stacktrace if ASAN hits an issue.
``` console
$ ./configure --debug --enable-asan && make -j4
$ make test-only
```
#### Troubleshooting Unix and macOS builds
Stale builds can sometimes result in `file not found` errors while building.
