Read the Wiki. Arch isn't a hand-holding distribution, but instead expects you to do your own research. Adding users to groups is covered in the Wiki.

Notice the reference to "virtualenv" - I've no particular experience with this but afaiu, virtualenv doesn't actually provide isolated user management at all?

I want to use codejail . It is used to test the code which is run on browser.

That's unrelated to virtualenv - you just need to add users/groups.
This is a basic task that you should have managed when installing arch - it's the first post-installation item. Read the wiki.

Re: [solved]How to create group and adduser in virtualenv?

I understand the idea of arch linux, but from my understanding I need to create a "sandbox" account which is belonging to "sandbox" group to test   """ To run, CodeJail requires two user accounts. One account is the main account under which the code runs, which has access to create sandboxes. This will be referred to as <SANDBOX_CALLER>. The second account is the account under which the sandbox runs. This is typically the account 'sandbox.' """

I was asking can I create a virtual group named "<SANDBOX>" to add my sandbox user. I have read the wiki a lot of times, but i could not find how to create a group. If i edit "/etc/group" is it enough?

Thanks

ps : I found it groupadd <group>
