#2 First Hangout Meeting

Last Tuesday, I had my first Hangout meeting with my mentors. Here's the recap:

• We completed the student-mentor agreement for GSoC, 2019, which was to be mailed to the org admin.
• Meanwhile, the mentors had a bit of a hard time pronouncing my name, as one can imagine, with the strong H sounds in Indian names!
• My mentors helped me set up the OfflineValidatorTests class, which would be required to test the tests I write!
• The run configuration of the Java class was updated with the directory path to the test files, the range of the test codes, and the filter 'xml'.
• The program was executed successfully for the layout package, but when we tried to run it with the configuration for spatial, it faltered and ran checks for core. 
• The problem was figured out by my mentor and was fixed the very next day.
• In the end, it was decided that we'll be meeting every Tuesday evening (IST). I also resolved a couple of doubts regarding the tests and with that, we concluded our meeting.

For the remaining time in the community bonding period, I decided to go through the implementations of constraints from other packages and try to resolve any issues I encounter along the way.

Till next time,

Cheers!
