B2G/QA/Bugzilla/Advanced

Intro to Bugzilla

• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Bugzilla
• If it's the first time you are using bugzilla I highly recommend; it's 2 years old, however it's a good general intro: bugzilla-for-humans
• Also to note, I would also suggest creating a separate gmail account for bugzilla as you may end up getting tons and tons of emails about bugs.
• Other information about Bugzilla FAQ that doesn't necessarily impact doing work

Tips and Tricks:

• Quick Searching by typing in firefox URL

Base Camp blocking Priorities for Gaia

• P1 (assigned) - dogfood/smoketest blockers, required feature work for v1 ship, demo blockers, certification requirements, l10n impact, risky or high LOE work, work with long dependency changes
• P2 - Regressions, security bugs, severe crash/hang bugs, severe usability issues
• P3 - Less critical stability, stability, and performance bugs that still block v1, less severe usability issues
