Rohit Yadav commented on CLOUDSTACK-8208:
-----------------------------------------

[~rcoedo] that's good, are you a student?

Let me know whatever guidance you need or more details. I would suggest you 
start by building and playing with CloudStack so you've a feel of what it is as 
a user first and then try something as developer. Join the CloudStack dev and 
user ML and ask questions when you're stuck. If you need help with setting up 
one node CloudStack deployment with NFS+KVM, I can help you or you may read 
this: http://bhaisaab.org/logs/cloudstack-kvm

I gave a talk in last CCCEU which you may follow which is an intro to 
CloudStack development as well:

> The integration tests that CloudStack has are hard to run on real hardware 
> due to strict/hardcoded configuration. The task of this project are:
> - Figure about minimal system resources needed to run all integration tests 
> (RAM, CPU, no. of VMs).
> - Fix integration tests for they can run on a developer's laptop or mini PCs 
> such as NUC with real hypervisors (and not just simulator) - Xen or KVM. All 
> hypervisors run in nested virtualized environment - for example Xen on 
> VirtualBox, KVM on VMWare workstation or Fusion, or KVM/Xen on KVM etc.
> - Create Jenkins job for the same
> - Write an tool necessary to automate this
> - Create ansible based (ideal/template) CloudStack deployment based on Xen or 
> KVM (checkout as an example, github.com/bhaisaab/peppercorn)
> This will be most important GSoC project and contribution to CloudStack if it 
> delivers the above because right now even if we've the integration tests, 
> they are hard to run by developers.
