Projects
- PTL: Integration/Test
- Committer Integration/Test, Integration/Packaging, Releng/Builder, Autorelease
Statement of Intent
- Test automation has always been important to me and I believe it is vital to any software project. As the PTL of Integration/Test I try to help drive high quality automated system test across all OpenDaylight projects which in turn helps deliver a higher quality OpenDaylight release. The top benchmark for deciding release quality resides on the automated tests run by the various OpenDaylight projects and supporting and that process will be a top priority.

Passionate about improving the usability aspects of ODL and thus driving its adoption. Very keen about practical considerations and industry requirements and drive those changes. I would also like to improve the documentation of ODL. Another aspect I am very interested in is integration of ODL with modern software stacks.
