Mawaheb, wonderful to hear from you :-) Glad your wanting to help be a
part of ubuntu. There are many different ways to get involved in QA.
You've come during a busy week, so your timing is great :-)
This week is a cadence week. Take a look at the wiki page below to give
you a better idea on what that means, but basically we'll be testing
several packages and the images this week together as a team. We've
chosen nautilus, empathy, alsa, and the iso images as part of our
testing for this week.

In addition, I'm hosting two sessions where we'll all gather on
#ubuntu-quality to do our cadence testing. The first was today, which
you missed :-(. However, the other is Thursday at 1400-1500 UTC on
#ubuntu-quality on freenode. We'll be around running through our cadence
tests and helping each other out. Try and participate and submit results
for the cadence testing -- there's a great tutorial here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cadence/Walkthrough. Of course the
session on Thursday will also help you get started.
As to what else we do, well, these pages should give you a better idea
on what's out there:

We've been exploring automated testing this cycle with autopilot, and
lots of resources to get you started there as well. Briefly, autopilot
is a python framework for writing automated GUI testcases. Since your
studying computer science you might enjoy coding testcases as much as
running them :-)
Finally, I'd encourage you to follow @ubuntutesting, and ubuntuqa on g+
to get plugged into what's going on. Your already on the mailing list,
so that's great. We also have a facebook group for helping to connect
with each other if your on that social network ;-)
Let us know what I can do to help as you get started. Feel free to reach
out on this list or #ubuntu-quality on freenode at any time.
Thanks!
Nicholas
