Based on the example of the XWiki Open Source project (http://xwiki.org) this session will describe a number of practices to improve the quality of a Java project. Also, it will show how to implement these practices so that they are automatically checked and enforced. Some examples include:

• How to make sure your project does not break binary compatibility unintentionally and, more generally, how to successfully evolve an API without breaking your users;
• How to manage the JAR hell and avoid duplication of classes in your application at runtime;
• How to automatically control the test coverage and the associated policies;
• How to automate functional testing of web applications and how to avoid false-positives that plague any project..
