Access Mentored Sprints at PyCon India 2021 System

Sprints are conducted over hopin. If you had registered for the sprints, you would have got an email to join the platform.

The async communication channel is Zulip. 2021/devsprints stream has a topic for ScanAPI.

Zulip streams are great for async conversation and discussion around the project/bug/feature requests.

Access ScanAPI Sprint room

In hopin session's you would find a room titled ScanAPI. The room is dedicated to help pair program on a particular issue, any feature request that you might want to talk about, or just API testing in general.

Find an issue to tackle

Ok, it is time to find an issue to tackle! We prepared a dashboard containing all good issues to be tackled during sprint sessions:

Dashboard

All issues that are in the To Do column and have no one assigned are possible issues for you. Find one that you feel comfortable with.

Issues mentioned on the dashboard are the ones that you can complete during the sprint duration but if you want to pick something a bit more challenging feel free to look into the issues of the repo.

If you have any questions about any issue, feel free to ask there, we will be more than happy to answer them!

Issue assignment

Once you have picked one to tackle, go to the issue's page and send a comment saying that you are interested in working on it. This way, we can assign the issue to you.
