Welcome to the Mozilla QA Community Wiki!
As our Mozilla community grows, this page will provide a central place for QA volunteers to help us better organize, plan, and execute our community testing. Any documentation or information that you feel will benefit our QA efforts is welcome here.
Hot Events
- Firefox Test Day - Friday, March 9, 2007
- We will be focusing on the critical bugs fixed for Firefox 2.0.0.3/1.5.0.11
- Seneca Event - March 1, 2007
- We will be moderating an introduction to Mozilla QA activities for a group of students from Seneca College.
Community Mini-Projects
- Talkback Report Challenge 1: Simple Reports Makeover
- Our current "Simple" Talkback reports are pretty out-dated and don't look very nice, so we need your help!
- See an example for Firefox 2.0.0.1 under "Simple Reports" at http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/reports/firefox/FF2001/index.html
- The Challenge: Take a Talkback crash datafile and write a script or web application to create a better "Simple" Talkback report. Simple...right?
- Our current "Simple" Talkback reports are pretty out-dated and don't look very nice, so we need your help!
- QMO (quality.mozilla.org) Web Design Challenge (coming soon...)
- We have the barebones Joomla! 1.5 CMS installed and running, but need to make it look pretty! Since I'm not a web designer and haven't worked with Joomla! before, we can use some creative input.
- The Challenge: Modify an existing Joomla! 1.5 template or create a new template to give QMO a nice, unique look. The web site will be home to all things related to Mozilla QA, so try to capture the spirit of the Mozilla project and community...with a QA twist. :-)
Who We Are
The Mozilla Quality Assurance team is made up of a unique community of internal employees and the public community of those who love the Mozilla products. We are constantly seeking solid volunteers who can dedicate their time to help us test our features and make a solid product!

- How long have you been a Mozilla Volunteer and/or user?
- Where are you from?
- What do you enjoy doing when you're not testing/hacking for Mozilla?

Community Events
- Test Days - We will often need your help testing new features or a new release, so we will be holding regular test days to give you a chance to try out the latest builds and test around new fixes and features.
- Bug Days - Every Tuesday, we will be gathering in #bugday to focus our efforts on bugs in Bugzilla and testing some of the latest builds.
- Future Events?
- As Mozilla continues to innovate the web experience through new features, we will need to make sure we thoroughly test any new functionality introduced in Firefox and Thunderbird. In order to ensure we catch any regressions and identify critical bugs quickly, we will occassionally have special New Feature Testing (NFT) events. When we do, we will post to the QA blog and also provide a test plan here that includes more information about the feature, any current bugs, test cases, and instructions on how to provide feedback.
QA Tools
QMO Design & Planning
- The QMO Design & Planning page will help me and the QA team track our progress as we work towards making QMO a reality. We will certainly need community input and help along the way, so please check it regulary and continue to read the QA Blog for updates.
