Revision as of 23:16, 5 July 2012

Getting started

Before testing, take a moment to get set up. This should not take very long, even for a beginner.

  1. Create an account on Bugzilla, the bug-reporting website used by Mozilla.
    • Visit the new account page.
    • Enter your email address in the bottom-right corner.
    • Confirm your email address.
  2. Join the discussion on IRC (optional)

Testing

Topic one

  1. Share your thoughts. We will work with you to correct any problems you find.

Topic two

  1. Share your thoughts. We will work with you to correct any problems you find.

Topic three

Try all of the above. Test some things that we never even thought to consider. See if you can break the website. The world is your oyster.

Thanks!

In just a short amount of time, you have made the MDN better for users everywhere. This is no small accomplishment. Thank you.

Appendix

Guiding questions

  • Does everything work? Are you able to do the same things you could do on the old MDN wiki?
  • Is the interface understandable and easy to use?
  • Does all of the content look ok? Is anything from the current MDN site missing?
  • Do you have any ideas for making the wiki better?
