Mozilla is using the Whiteboard field, the Keywords field, and Flags to mark bugs for different reasons. Here we will try to capture the meaning and logic of some of these flags and string.

Flags

in-testsuite

The "in-testsuite+" flag means that a bug has a test and the test is in an automated test suite. The "in-testsuite?" flag means that a bug may have a test associated with it but that it needs to be evaluated for either correctness or for integration with the automated harnesses. It may also mean that a test needs to be written for the bug. The "in-testsuite-" means that a bug doesn't need a test (code cleanup, etc). If this explanation is not correct, please edit and/or discuss in mozilla.dev.quality newsgroup.

needinfo

The needinfo flag means that a bug has a request pending for a info from someone specified by an email address. When the flag state is needinfo? followed by an email address means the request is active. The needinfo request can be cleared using comments in the bug.
