This page explains how the JavaScript Team uses Bugzilla.
Bugzilla components
- Core::JavaScript Engine
- Core::JavaScript Engine: JIT
- Core::JavaScript: GC
- Core::JavaScript: Internationalization API
- Core::JavaScript: Standard Library
- Core::JavaScript: Web Assembly
- Core::js-ctypes
Whiteboard flags
A few whiteboard flags are used today in the JS components:
- [arm64:m...] Used to track milestone blocker bugs for ARM64 Fennec and GeckoView.
- [lang={c++,py,js}] Is used in tandem with the good-first-bugs keyword to list this bug as in BugsAhoy!.
As a convention, anybody can follow the following naming for using the whiteboard to improve Bugzilla searches. However, note that whiteboard searches are not indexed in Bugzilla databases and this might lead to performance issues.
- [:nick:...] Used by the user :nick for managing bugs.
- [#channel:...] Used by members of the IRC #channel for managing bugs.
Priority Flags
Priority flags are used to track whether a bug is going to be worked on soon.
- P1: The bug is being worked on, or it should urgently be worked on.
- P2: This is in someone todo-list.
- P3: backlog; to be fixed … one day.
- P4: There is no P4.
- P5: Patches are welcome!
Severity
Severity flags should be N/A for enhancement and tasks. Any others should have a severity set from S1 to S4, which definitions are listed in the source documentation.
Triage
A meeting is held every week, on Tuesday 9am PT. (contact Steven De Tar, to be invited)
The triage effort is currently held by Steven De Tar, Nicolas B. Pierron, Bryan Thrall, and Matthew Gaudet. They mainly work off the following lists:
- List of non-prioritized bugs - This list is used to set the missing priority flags and whiteboard flags to the corresponding bugs and sometimes needinfo? people.
- List of bugs without severity - Bug set as defect should have a severity, this list output all bugs with a defect annotation but no severity.
- BugDash - Scroll down to the bottom, under "Pending Untriaged (defects only)". This reports per-component the number of bugs which need to be triaged.
- Security bugs - Also, this query is the same but not limited to sec-high and sec-critical bugs
- Triage Center — List all non-triaged bugs for all JS components.
- List of Non-Rooted Bugs — “All your bugs are belong to Bug SpiderMonkey”, We have a tree of meta-bugs, and all bugs concerning SpiderMonkey should indirectly block the Bug SpiderMonkey. Using the tree view of this bug is one way to find what might be a good meta bug to add to the blocked list.
Triage Quests
- JS Meta Bugs
- Review meta bugs. Close those who are complete, keep open "ongoing" bugs, create new meta-bugs for projects which still have continuation work. Bugs which have been re-triaged should be whiteboard-tagged with 'sm-meta-retriage-2025'.
- Intermittent Bugs
Tools
- Meta-bugs extension (by nbp) to highlight fields in Bugzilla that need attention during triage
