Hi Jason, On http://trac.webkit.org/wiki there are a bunch of pages under "Layout Tests" and "Performance Tests" that describe much of the infrastructure. These days most of it is written in Python.
I don't know what projects Benjamin has in mind so I don't know if that will match what he was referring to, but hopefully this will be helpful. -- Dirk On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 3:44 PM, Jason Anderssen <janders...@exactal.com> wrote: > Hello Benjamin, > > Thank you for a starting point and would like to explore further with this. > Please point me in the right direction to how I can help in the cleaning of > the WebKit testing infrastructure please. > This will also allow me to understand how all you guys work together and > understand the procedures etc.. > > Cheers > Jason > > > From: Benjamin Poulain <benja...@webkit.org> > Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2013 08:52:17 +1000 > > To: Jason Anderssen <janders...@exactal.com> > Cc: "webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org" <webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org> > Subject: Re: [webkit-dev] Getting involved > > Hi Jason, > > On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 2:45 PM, Jason Anderssen <janders...@exactal.com> > wrote: >> >> With a background in development (both windows and MAC) I was wanting to >> get involved in an open source project that I believe is going to make the >> world a greater place.
