Hi, Umbrella jira to fix flaky test cases: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2135. Probably, you could participate in code reviews(jira pull requests/patches etc.). This will also help you to learn the system. https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/pulls
I hope you have visited https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ZOOKEEPER/HowToContribute wiki page. If not please read this, which is a good resource for new folks interested in participating.
