Geertjan Wielenga commented on NETBEANS-6113:
---------------------------------------------

Best thing is to ask questions and discuss with the dev community, especially 
when getting started contributing (which is great, thank you!), see the mailing 
lists at netbeans.apache.org.

> Test FAQ contain 404 Links

>                 Key: NETBEANS-6113
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-6113
>             Project: NetBeans
>          Issue Type: Task
>            Reporter: Karl-Philipp Richter
>            Priority: Minor
>
> I wanted to get started on developing for NetBeans by attempting a fix on 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5525. Just because it bugs me 
> and seems low hanging fruit.
>  
> As it turns out, it's extremely hard. After two hours I have no idea whether 
> the class I want to fix has a test case or not. I've been searching the wiki 
> and FAQ intensively and stumbled over a lot of dead links, mainly in 
> [https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/DevFaqIndex.asciidoc#_running_and_writing_tests.]
>  
> You probably want to migrate to a build system where these questions don't 
> need to be asked - no one ever asked where to find a class' test in a Maven 
> or Gradle project -, so this ticket might be covered by this migration. And 
> you might be able to throw away the FAQ afterwards anyway or move it to 
> module READMEs where it's usually maintained more naturally.
