| Bug Days are an excellent way to contribute to Mozilla's QA efforts. It doesn't matter if you've been involved with Mozilla for years or if this is your first step into our amazing open source community. Anyone can participate and be a valuable contributor. We gather together at predetermined times to focus on particular areas in Bugzilla. The exact area or topic for Bug Day will vary each event. But the general idea is to work through some sort of bug list as a team.

|
| A lot of bugs are filed every day by our community of users and testers. Because so many get filed,we have a lot of bugs that sit in an "unconfirmed" status. This does not mean that the bugs are unimportant.Rather, this means that no developer or bug triager has been able to either confirm the bug exists or resolve the bug in some form.
| | As of April 2014: |
|
| |
|
| We have set a goal of dropping the number of unconfirmed bugs. This means triaging bugs and either confirming or closing them.
| | [[Bugdays/Bug-Triage | Bug Triage]] days are generally Fridays. |
| | [[Bugdays/Bug-verification | Bug Verification]] days are on Wednesday! |
|
| |
|
| For more Information please see this [http://quality.mozilla.org/node/156 QMO Page] | | Join us in #testday and introduce yourself. In triaging, we go through newly reported bugs. For verification, we try to make sure that "fixed" bugs really are fixed. See you in #testday! |

| |
| '''Euro session - 14:00-16:00 UTC/GMT +2 hours (Berlin) (12:00-14:00 UTC)'''<br>

| '''Amer. session - 12:00-14:00 UTC/GMT -7 hours (Los Angeles) (19:00-21:00 UTC)'''
| |
| | |
| Please use that and the tools at [http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ The World Clock] to help determine when a session is happening for you.
| |
| | |
| Some of us hang around between or after sessions, so you may find someone in #bugday outside of this time, and if not, you can always find people in #qa.

| | Each Bug Day topic will have a specific focus. Instruction on what needs to be done should be included in the QMO Bug Day Event post: |
|
| |
|
| * Replicate the problems specified in bug reports and mark them as "confirmed" whenever we are able to do so.

| * Close bug reports as WORKSFORME or INVALID when it's appropriate to do so.
| |
| * Ask reporters to provide missing information that would help to replicate and ultimately fix the bugs they report.
