ahsan shamsudeen commented on DERBY-6164:
-----------------------------------------

I am Ahsan Shamsudeen from Computer Science & Engineering, University of 
Moratuwa. I am willing to participate in GSoC 2013 . I have gone through all 
the available projects and found this one as very interesting.Since, I have a 
good working knowledge on Junit, code coverage as well as test driven 
development(TDD) by doing many of academic and business projects. Also I am 
good at relational database management ,online transaction processing and 
database technologies. I have gone through the given  link and check  the EMMA 
code coverage report.But, I am quit a new to apache derby and related 
technologies.So, if you can guide me  how to start with apache derby , it will 
be a  great help for me to move on with this project.

Thanks,
Ahsan

> This year's edition of Google Summer of Code includes, once again, the Apache 
> Software Foundation.
> For the Derby project, I'm offering to mentor a student on the tasks 
> described here.
> For this project, you are required to have some basic knowledge of JUnit and 
> of how code coverage works.
> Currently some packages of Derby have poor code coverage. Emma defines the 
> minimum acceptable code coverage as 70% and some engineers suggest a minimum 
> of 80% is desired. 
> Students are invited to look at [1] to get familiar with Emma's code coverage 
> reports on Derby. 
> The Derby project conducted this effort last year, and substantial 
> improvements were made.
> We are looking to continue this process this year, as there are still areas 
> of the Derby code base where code coverage could be substantially improved.
> The candidate students are also expected to come up with their own schedule 
> for the tests they plan on creating and to discuss this schedule publicly on 
> the mailing list. 
> After a student applies, a small interview will be conducted via email as 
> part of the ASF's evaluation process.
