Hi All,

I am Yasitha Chathuranga Pandithawatta, 4th year undergraduate of Department of Computer Science Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. As an open source fan I would like to take part in GSoC this year. I am really interested about the project "Automated Testing" which is listed in your wiki page under "GSoC 2012 Ideas List".

I would like to get to know more details about the project. I would like to contact the mentor if possible. Hope I can do my best for the organization and a reply will be highly appreciated.

Regards,

Hi Yasitha,

While the proposed mentor for this idea should be able to give you more details on the project, following resources might be helpful to you to get started.

We have a wiki page that contains details on setting up the testing environment. You can find it here [1].
There was also a GSoC project aimed at improving the test coverage last year and you can find details about it from here [2].
