Hi Fineract Dev Team,
I am Giulio, a second-year Computer Engineering student at the University
of Bologna (UNIBO). I am writing to introduce myself and express my strong
interest in contributing to Apache Fineract for GSoC 2026.
I have already successfully set up my local development environment on
Windows, running Fineract with Java 21 and Spring Boot 3.5.6. My instance
is fully operational, with the health check returning:
{"status":"UP","groups":["liveness","readiness"]}. (although during the
setup, I resolved various build challenges, including Checkstyle violations
and database permission configurations).
I am particularly interested in the project: "Migrate integration tests
from RestAssured to Fineract client (Feign)". I believe modernizing the
testing infrastructure is a key step for the platform's long-term
maintainability, and I would love to contribute to this effort.
To get started and familiarize myself with the workflow, are there any
"Good First Issues" specifically related to the testing suite or the Feign
client? I am eager to submit my first PR and start helping the community.
Looking forward to your guidance!
(Hope I didn't bore anyone!)
Rinalduzzi Giulio
