[Oliver Bestwalter]

Hi all,

the date for the helpdesk is tuesday from 10:30 to 12:00 and again from
14:00 to 15:30.

I am also there on sunday and will stay for the sprints and do some work on
tox, if you are interested to join in.

See you in Rimini
Oliver

Hi Dave,

no problem - was looking forward to see you to though. Are you attending
Pycon US? I might be there for the sprints.

Unfortunately not. Might be able to attend a pytest sprint if one is planned, 
but otherwise it’ll probably be next year for me.

Re: [pytest-dev] [tox-dev] Suggestion: EuroPython pytest/tox/devpi helpdesk

[Oliver Bestwalter]

Hi all,

I almost dropped the ball here as I was on vacation and forgot about this
for a while. I am a lucky guy though, because they extended the time for
CfP until tomorrow so now I started to write a proposal.

I will write a pretty general proposal about offering to help people with
their entry to intermediate level questions and problems regarding pytest,
tox and devpi, because I am confident I can help with that even if I am on
my own. I will offer to help with their problems with configurations or
finding the right testing strategy.

If a problem is unsolvable by me, then it is by definition "advanced" and I
can help formulating their problems/potential bugs as issues or questions
to the TIP mailing list for the gurus to pick up.

I can do the proposal in my name so there is no need for any strict
commitment from anyone but me, but I would obviously be delighted, if you
turn up :)

I'll keep you posted if the proposal was accepted.

Cheers,
Oliver

I'm interested in this as well (pytest-cov/benchmark and general pytest
help) but what are the guidelines? I suppose there is no space for a 10
people "pytest-*" helpdesk. The CFP page is very scarce on information.
Anyone already asked organizers for more info?

I’m thinking of coming to EuroPython, and would be happy to spend some time at 
the helpdesk. My particular area of expertise would be the plugins I maintain, 
but I’m sure I can also answer some pytest/tox/devpi queries too.

Cheers,
