Welcome to the Mozilla QA Community Bug Day wiki!!
Bug Days are an excellent way to contribute to Mozilla's QA efforts. It doesn't matter if you've been involved with Mozilla for years or if this is your first step into our amazing open source community. Anyone can participate and be a valuable contributor. We gather together at predetermined times to work on areas in Bugzilla. The exact area or topic for Bug Day may vary week to week. But the general idea is to work through some sort of bug list as a team.
Community Representatives
We'd like to start recruiting a few individuals from the community to take under our wings and give a larger role in community QA projects like Bug Days and Test Days.
