A little introduction

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Pierre, sadly you missed the hackfest it was several hours ago :-( 
However you can still hack and ask questions! A virtual machine is 
certainly enough. For development of new testcases ideally we'd like you 
to be running the development version, so upgrade or re-install your VM 
to saucy and you should be all set :-)

Then check out here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ContributingTestcases/

You can get your launchpad environment setup and then start on some 
tests. I recommend doing a manual testcase first. Pick something off the 
list of bugs, assign yourself to it and hack away.

Here's the walkthrough for more help :-)

In video format as well with a bit more depth ;-)

Thanks,

Nicholas
