Triaging and | Triaging and prioritizing these bugs are an essential part of our development process and we automate part of this process so as to increase our development turn around and improve the quality of our bugs metadata. The set of tools we use to improve the quality of our bugs, decrease our triaging time and help Release Management ship better quality software is called '''BugBot''' (formerly known as Autonag). | ||
Initially created as an alerting system (by email) to our triagers, BugBot rules now also make changes to our bugs metadata on Bugzilla so as to fix inconsistencies. | Initially created as an alerting system (by email) to our triagers, BugBot rules now also make changes to our bugs metadata on Bugzilla so as to fix inconsistencies. | ||
