CTA: Hackathon @Pragmatists

[bmajsak]

Guys from Pragmatists are organizing 1 day hackathon where they will code in pairs and reached me out for suggestions what can they improve in Arquillian. I think it's great opportunity to get new contributions! Let's discuss about some tasks which are important and can be done or left in a state where we can take it over and finalize within one day.

Event will take place on 2nd of July in Warsaw (Poland).

Hey Bartosz,

those great news and I have certainly some ideas:

• continue works on Warp REST Extension
  • Jakub Narloch is from Warsaw, hopefully he will be able to join!
• Thucydides / Drone / Graphene integration
• improve reporting of Selenium-based tests (I can write more on a topic, but the idea is to provide developer with as much as information of the context of a failure as possible)

Cool, thanks guys. Do you think we could be able to support them through IRC to some extent?

I will look for some easy picks from my side today.

Would love to support it via IRC, but 2. July is a travel day for me so I can't.

[bmajsak]

From my side, after a look at what's in the JIRA backlog, I think those two might be quite easy and handy to implement

ArchiveDeploymentExporter should export both archive and testable archive (if applicable) - https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-897

Improve the readability of the name of the archive file exported by the ArchiveDeploymentExporter  https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-898

I should be on IRC this day with one longer break [16-20 CET]
