 If you're not sure of the appropriate component or even product, that's ok.  We'll move it to the right component, but filing in the right component will speed up the process of getting your bug fixed and save our time, so please try to find the most appropriate component.
+== Additional QA Tasks ==
+In addition to filing bugs and triaging unconfirmed bug reports, there are other QA areas that need attention.
+* '''Crash bugs''' are some of the worst bugs and deserve special attention.  You can retrieve talkback stacks for specific bugs using the talkback ID at this [http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/talkback/fastfind.jsp query page].  You can also browse submitted [http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/reports/mozilla/ talkback reports] to look for common crashes.  If you can reproduce the crash based on the information the submitter provided and can't find an existing bug, please file a new bug.
+* [http://www.mozilla.org/quality/smoketests/ '''Smoketests'''] should be run regularly to catch serious regressions quickly.  If you find a smoketest that fails and can't find an existing bug, please file a new bug with the keyword ''smoketest'' and ''blocker'' severity.
+* Developers flag bugs with the '''qawanted''' keyword to indicate that they need help to properly diagnose a problem.  This can mean writing a testcase, testing on a specific platform, or just trying to find consistent steps to reproduce a bug.  You can search for bugs with the ''qawanted'' keyword from the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/query.cgi bugzilla query] page (advanced search).
