Before Thunderbird is released to the general public, it goes through beta testing. To participate in this effort you'll need to run a [https://www.thunderbird.net/download/beta/ Beta version] which is different from the standard release version of Thunderbird.
The [https://www.thunderbird.net/download/beta/ Beta web page] has advice and links to many helpful resources, including a beta topicbox group for advice and assistance.
=== Finding regressions ===
=== Daily build testing ===
This requires running [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/channel/ Daily version] which is different from the standard release version of Thunderbird. Daily is a difficult environment, because you get a new version almost every day, with updated code. Sometimes the daily build is broken by bugs. Otherwise, the challenges are similar to running a beta version. The [https://thunderbird.topicbox.com/groups/daily daily topicbox group] is available for advice and assistance.
