Pierre, sadly you missed the hackfest it was several hours ago :-(
However you can still hack and ask questions! A virtual machine is
certainly enough. For development of new testcases ideally we'd like you
to be running the development version, so upgrade or re-install your VM
to saucy and you should be all set :-)
Then check out here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/ContributingTestcases/
You can get your launchpad environment setup and then start on some
tests. I recommend doing a manual testcase first. Pick something off the
list of bugs, assign yourself to it and hack away.

Here's the walkthrough for more help :-)

In video format as well with a bit more depth ;-)

Thank you all for your welcome messages :)
I installed this morning a Ubuntu 13.04 within a virtual machine
(cause at home I currently only have a macbook pro on which I
installed Parallels to manage virtual machines).
Will this be enough to participate to the hackfest later on today?
Thanks,

Thanks Jackson!
I will try to participate to this hackfest (probably only the
beginning, as I live in Taiwan).
Cheers!

Hi everyone!
A user of Ubuntu since its very first release, back in
2004, I would like to help making it better.
My profesional experience includes QA, so I know how
important it is, and I may be able to help well here!
I already joined the "Ubuntu Quality" team on launchpad.
I don't have much experience testing Linux packages,
but I'm willing to help.
I think I'm technical enough to participate to the
automated testcases (plus I would love to do more
Python! ;)).
I'll have a look at the todo list [1], and read more
about autopilot in the related Ubuntu QA web page [2].
Cheers!
