quick meetup on irc chat

[Sandeep Baldawa <sa...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Would it be possible to meet on irc chat at a particular time, as I need
clarification on the following.

- A quick run through where the scripts for backend functionality reside
and what they do.
- Sandbox methodology for Ambari builds.
- Quick discussion on unit and functional tests.
- Environment recommended for doing testing, before submitting code for
review.
- Ambari code building good practices eg:- If I change just the agent code,
do I have to still rebuild the whole code base or maybe not?

If there are other newbies like me, perhaps they could also join, please
advice if this would be possible and at what time.

Best,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
 As for the irc chat meetup, usually you will see folks from 9:00 to
5:00 pacific time. Most of the active developers are in the east coast
as of now. You can feel free to ping myself on anyone else on IRC. We
can think about setting up a particular time on the IRC as well if
that does not work.

As for the questions below, I've tried to answer the ones I can as of now:

the scripts are mostly in ambari-agent/src/main/puppet

Not sure what this means. Can you elaborate?

Unit tests can be run via mvn test. Right now there are no functional
tests in the code base.

Mostly the dev environment on the cwiki.

Not really. Server code and agent code are separate builds combined by
the top level pom files.

Again, feel free to jump in on IRC and ping specific folks if you want to.
