« QA/Community/Bug Day

Preparing for Bug Day

Topics

  • Good topics for bug days allow for steady progress when tackled collaboratively.
    • For Bugzilla: Try to focus bug queries such that bug lists are reasonable in length. Mix up the purpose from week to week. (don't just triage bugs every week)
      • Triage Unconfirmed
      • Dupes
      • Verification
      • etc
  • Suggestions for future topics:
    • ???
    • ???

Schedule

Date Topic
April 6 Thunderbird 2 Unconfirmed Bug Triage and Testing
April 13 Firefox 3 Unconfirmed Bug Triage and Testing
April 20 tbd
April 27 tbd

note: don't forget to check the Bug Day Archive page for previously done topics. It's perfectly fine to revisit past topics. The archives page is out of date.

Changes to the Wiki

  • Adjust the following items on the Bug Day wiki page as appropriate:
    • Topic of the day
      • Move the old topic, if it's a unique topic, to the Bug Day Archive page
      • Replace the old topic with the new topic
      • Include links to bugzilla queries (tinyurls)
    • Update status report for the last bugday
    • Note who is moderating each session
    • Release being targeted: Update links to the builds to be tested (usually trunk)
  • Update this page with potential topics and schedule them

Promote Bug Days for increased participation

Post announcements to the following areas Tues and Friday prior to each every other Tuesday Bugday:

Misc

  • When appropriate, invite developer(s) to participate
  • Adjust plan for regional interests if necessary

Needs

  • hosts for the Asian and Americas sessions
  • a simple to implement rewards program
