Hi Django Mentors,
I am Khushbu Wagh, a Full-stack Web Development student from India. I have been exploring Django’s GSoC 2026 ideas and I am very excited about the project ‘Switch to Playwright tests for integration testing’.
I have experience with JavaScript and building responsive UIs, and I want to dive deeper into automated testing within the Django ecosystem. I have already started reading the project description and the related GitHub issues.
Could you please guide me on the initial steps? Are there any ‘easy-pick’ tickets or small tasks related to testing that I can pick up to get familiar with the codebase?
Looking forward to contributing and learning!
Best regards,
Khushbu Wagh
