Who Triages
See list of triage leads.
What Do You Triage
All open, confirmed bugs in a component without a pending needinfo flag since 1 July 2016.
How Do You Triage
Find bugs un-triaged bugs in your component.
We're building a web tool to help you do this.
For each bug decide priority (you can ignore what's already been set, as a triage lead, you are the decider.)
- P1
- Fix in the current release or iteration
- P2
- Fix in the next release or iteration
- P3
- Backlog
- P5
- Will not fix, but will accept a patch
How Do I Handle Edge Cases
I Don't Have Enough Information
Needinfo someone who can answer your question and finish triaging when they reply.
This doesn't fit into a P1, P2, P3, or P5 framework
Mark it as a P3. If it's a tracking bug, make sure it's marked as [meta].
I don't think we should work on it at any time
If you'll accept a patch, mark it as P5, otherwise, close it as WONTFIX
Follow Ups
Watch open needinfos
Don't let open needinfos linger for more than two weeks. Close minor bugs with unresponded needinfos. Chase down other needinfo requestees.
End of Iteration
- P2s become P1s after review
- Hoist any P3s to P2's or P1
