Do sth. "in good faith"

Hello, would someone please kindly explain the meaning of "in good faith"? does it mean "I believe something good would happen", or "I'm a good person, I won't lie, I won't harm you" ?

Thank you in advance!

It is usually used to indicate that an assumption has accompanied the action. I told you that secret in good faith (hoping you would not repeat it). The contractor quoted the price in good faith (that he would not charge extra).
