QA/Testdays
What are Testdays?
Testdays are global, virtual events organized by Mozillians for Mozillians, typically focused on testing a particular product or feature. They are meant to teach people the skills necessary to contribute at Mozilla, to connect people to each other so they can make an impact.
Our Mission
To establish long-lasting, meaningful relationships between volunteers and projects within Mozilla through mentorship.
Our Vision
For testdays to be a platform for collaborative mentorship, to provide opportunity for Mozillians to help each other contribute.
Our Strategy
We're always looking to improve testdays, to make them ever enjoyable and valuable to participants, and to ensure they are delivering on our mission. Consult our strategic plan for more information on current and future initiatives, or to contribute your own ideas.
Our Goal
In collaboration with the community, develop a long-term strategy to redefine the program as value-driven events designed to teach new skills and connect contributors with various projects. We'll organize at least one event utilizing this strategy and gather feedback to drive more meaningful and active events through Q4 and beyond.
We'll have defined a solidifed strategy which includes:
- identifying barriers to organization of and participation in events
- a better understanding of the value of testdays based on feedback from the new event
- designing an straightforward process and or guide for organizing, communicating, executing an event informed by the strategy
- incorporating feedback from an event designed by our strategy
