Bugzilla

To the casual user, Bugzilla may look like a drop box for complaints, but in reality, it is the central nervous system of Mozilla development. Nearly all work on Mozilla code starts with a bug report. It doesn't matter if you are fixing an old feature or adding a new one. Without a bug report, your work is invisible to the community.

Whenever a change is made to the main repository for a Mozilla applications such as Firefox, the code is automatically compiled on all the major operating systems and an error log is generated. Tinderbox is where you can see the results. Here you can find out if your patch has caused any problems. Or you can find the last known revision to build without errors.
