Hello team \o/ ,I'm Mohammed Bilal and I've been the GSoC intern working with the Debian Med Team during 2022 and the one who've been bugging this mailing list for the past few months.This is my final report for the GSoC project "Quality Assurance and Continuous Integration for Applications in Life Sciences and Medicine". This is an overview of the work done during my GSoC period with the team.
** About the projectThe Debian Med project has packaged several applications in life sciences and medicine. Continuous integration for these packages is essential to ensure reproducible results and that all components work together. These, tests often uncover bugs in the code and the packaging process that can cause failures on end-user machines. The aim of my project was to write autopkgtests for Debian Med packages, fix existing tests, any pipeline failures and fix the bugs uncovered by these tests.
** Statistics: Autopkgtests added: 30 Updates : 7 Bugs fixed: 5 Autopkgtests added: *python-datacache *parallel-fastq-dump *nifticlib *gifticlib *dicomnifti *openslide *minc-tools *dcm2niix *atropos *python-bioblend *python-cobra *intake *bmtk *nifti2dicom *biomaj3-cli *gdcm *megadepth *rockhopper *emmax *zalign *plastimatch *delly *dcmtk *nipype *emperor *python-wdlparse *libbigwig *libncl *gatb-core *tvc Package Updates: *q2-dada2 *q2-feature-classifier *q2-fragment-insertion *q2-metadata *q2-phylogeny *delly *q2-sample-classifier RC Bugs fixed *dcm2niix (Closes: #1012336) *dicomnifti (Closes: #1013364) *gdcm (Closes: #1016450) *mothur (Closes: #1014104) *megadepth (Closes: #1016454)I became a Debian Maintainer right before the start of my gsoc journey and I'm thankful to my mentors for giving me access to upload some of my work on my own. Also during gsoc I got the chance to use some of the Debain Project's Infra like I got access to a s390 porterbox for fixing a bug in one of the packages I've worked on
I would like to thank my mentors, Andreas Tille and Nilesh Patra for their constant support and encouragement. I had a wonderful experience working with these amazing DDs. They were very quick to respond to my queries, sponsoring uploads and were very supportive. Also I would like to thank other Debian-Med members on this mailing list and the matrix room who guided me during my GSoC period. You all were super supportive and provided much needed feedback for my work. I plan to stick around and continue my contributions to Debian Med in the near feature.

Finally thanking the Debian Project for giving me this opportunity.I had a fun and productive summer with Debian 😃
