QMO (quality.mozilla.org) is the new Home of Mozilla QA.
[https://quality.mozilla.org/ QMO] is the home of Mozilla Quality Assurance.


QMO was completely redesigned in Fall 2008. Our goal with the redesign was to make it easier for anyone to get involved with Mozilla QA, provide existing community members a chance to get better organized, and promote the community projects and events that people can work on.
== 2014 Re-design ==
We sought feedback on the current state of QMO (as of June 2014) on two Mozilla mailing lists: [https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/community-building/2014-June/thread.html community-building] and [https://groups.google.com/forum/?_escaped_fragment_=topic/mozilla.dev.quality/9AmeBMJNu8g#!topic/mozilla.dev.quality/9AmeBMJNu8g dev-quality]. The ideas presented by community members and QA team members are summarized below.


You can find below the contact information for QMO:


== Team ==
== Summary of Feedback ==
=== Purpose of QMO ===
* the entrance page to QA team
* explain what the QA work is
* how QMO is structured for the different products in Mozilla
* welcoming spot for our QA community
* help the community get involved with QA activities: clear directions on how to start, depending on your skills/interests to give pointers to more advanced documentation, to promote the upcoming events.
* surface recent news (blogs, feeds) about testing needs, accomplishments and events


* PM: Al Billings
=== Community Needs ===
* Dev Lead: Craig Cook
* a summary of how to start at QMO, for the new contributor and pinned on the home page ([https://quality.mozilla.org/docs/misc/how-can-i-help-test/ How I Can Help Test] - should get more prominence).
* Themer: Craig Cook
* [https://quality.mozilla.org/docs/ documentation] should move to [https://developer.mozilla.org/ Mozilla Developer Network (MDN)] where the rest of Mozilla's documentation resides and is well-indexed by search engines.
* Event Notification and better Event Calendar -  upcoming events *first*
* easy way to adding the events to the calendar (Google, Apple, Lighting and others), rather than downloading.
* Showing the Badges for QA.
* interaction via IRC
* platform for QA education (open source testing tools, technical skills)
* listing of community members and their contributions / areas of focus


== Product Development ==
=== QMO Home Page ===
* remove the login on the top right of the home page
* create Planet QA with the blog - syndicate feeds from team members' blogs
* update the careers button to the correct link
* publicize open QA meeting on Wednesdays (see https://qa.ubuntu.com/ for inspiration)
* keep teams icons since they are adorable (kudos to [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/craigcook/ Craig Cook] for creating them!)
* Video section - get rid of it
* updated theme
* mobile support


=== Ideas ===
=== Team pages ===
* [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_severity=enhancement;query_format=advanced;bug_status=UNCONFIRMED;bug_status=NEW;bug_status=ASSIGNED;bug_status=REOPENED;product=quality.mozilla.org Idea Backlog]
* Team photo on team page
* each team member's email address for direct community interaction
* links to highlight any specific events/news/blog posts targeting their projects
* MDN / Wiki links on how to participate in their work.  
* link directly to the One and Done tasks already filtered for that project
* the Desktop Firefox page should have links to Nightly/Aurora/Beta downloads
