This is high level guide on how to contribute to Firefox Quality Assurance as an Active Contributor. Read on if you are a Firefox user and are interested in participating as an Active Contributor. If this doesn't seem to be the right volunteer level for you, each level of contribution is generally outlined at Firefox QA Community.

What is there to do?

There is prolific growth in and production from the Mozilla Development Community. Mozilla QA could use your help to keep up with that growth and production. Firefox QA is one area where you can make an impact. What follows are ways to take action and make an impact at each of the higher levels of the Firefox QA Community.
