Hi Everyone,

I've received feedback from our test team that some people are adding multiple 
QA keywords onto a bug, instead of adding a single keyword for the immediate 
need, which is causing confusion to the test team on what the immediate need of 
the QA request. The process is documented here - 
https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/QA/Triage#Summary_of_Keywords_and_Flags, but in 
summary:

* Only one keyword should be used to focus on the immediate QA need.
** Example: We aim to get branch checks first before we do a window, as branch 
checks helps us confirm an issue is truly a regression before we start to 
bisect this. In this case, we start with qawanted here to do branch checks. 
After branch checks are complete, the tester will add regressionwindow-wanted 
to work on getting a window for a particular bug if it's a blocking issue.
** Exception is for qaurgent - that's used in conjunction with a QA keyword to 
bump the priority of the QA request. It should only be used for bugs with 
critical impact at a bare bones level (e.g. smoketest, all automation is down 
due to X bug).
* We only focus on doing regression windows on blocker bugs only due to 
resource cost requirements needed to do a window. If you would like to have a 
window for a particular bug, then make sure to figure out if the issue is a 
blocker first. If it is a blocking issue, then feel free to add the 
regressionwindow-wanted keyword.

Feel free to reach out to Tony and I on any questions you have.

Sincerely,
Jason Smith
