Bug Wrangling Projects: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 22:58, 3 April 2013

List of ongoing Bugmaster projects to help manage Mozilla bugs.

Bugs Filed Today. All bugs filed in the last 24 hours. Usually this is around 400 bugs, but the number fluctuates over the course of the day.

To work in this area, go through the bugs with status UNCONFIRMED.

- Today's UNCO Bugs
- If you can reproduce a bug, and are fairly sure it is a Mozilla bug, mark it NEW.
- Assign the bug into a product and component, or tag it needs-component
- Tag the bug with other triage tasks that may be needed.

This is for bugs that have been reported in Mozilla-run websites.

Take a look at the [Website UNCONFIRMED] bugs.
Sort on Status, ID, or another field.
Check to see that the bug still exists.
- If you can't reproduce it, ask the reporter, in a comment with a need-info flag, if they can reproduce it.
  - If they can't, or don't answer after a week or so, resolve the bug as WORKSFORME.
- If you can reproduce it, mark it NEW and leave a comment to describe what you did. You may be able to find a person to cc on the bug if you look for who has resolved past, similar bugs.

Meta bug cleanup: this is a very easy task for beginners!
- Look at accessibility meta bugs
- Pick one, search for other bugs that are missing, and add them to the meta bug
