Bug Verifications

When you verify the bug is fixed, resolve it as VERIFIED FIXED and replace the fixed1.8.0.7 keyword with verified1.8.0.7

Tips:

  • Bugs verified on 1.8.1 still need to be verified in 1.8.0.7
  • If you don't see an easy way to verify or need further clarification add a comment to the bug or add "[needs testcase]" (without quotes) to the bug's Status Whiteboard.

Priority Verifications

  • 7 mail bugs ("fixed1.8.0.7" bugs, component is "mailnews" or product is "thunderbird")

  • 11 security bugs ("fixed1.8.0.7" bugs, no "needs testcase" in status whiteboard, and is marked "security-sensitive"):

Note: If you run into a difficult bug, just add the "[need testcase]" in the status whiteboard and move on.
