On the topic of issue triage, this is a service we could promote people to use. But I guess it's a question if the problem is more rate of new issues or old issues never getting closed.

Thank you for adding pytest-dev/pytest to CodeTriage. If you want to get more people helping out with this repo, we suggest adding a badge to the repo’s readme. Here is the markdown: [](https://codetriage.com/pytest-dev/pytest) You can view an the badge on the CodeTriage page for pytest <https://u307627.ct.sendgrid.net/wf/click?upn=MUrV-2BnW5j8SEy7InNvMchphxrykvX4sYF7UPgiGeGjn1K6gbCGbkCErfbfdY1OtK_wXFy2nOJ1XVOQei6Rg8EwVYdZS-2FdnbpAFtydSKD-2BGv2SPw5xO9m62RzBky8FRXoCXbX8o9H9Myw1SfS-2B1bsi6k9rm6m6oBvX6cRHikYkrxiXDxoRttnlwldlbIiMuaSzRsBSNpKGqxChlpsVrGNZcoPvYGsqAU8jIf6L9Plw-2FSuHt-2BL8WeCITa7rDCM16L4fgIb0o-2BbeDyUPUc-2Fe2-2FEURxUZz-2BztOS-2B8wLhuiXpmgAA-3D> . If pytest has a “contributing section” or docs on helping such as contributing.md, it helps to put a sentence or two encouraging people to subscribe to your repo: You can triage issues which may include reproducing bug reports or asking for vital information, such as version numbers or reproduction instructions. If you would like to start triaging issues, one easy way to get started is to [subscribe to pytest on CodeTriage](https://codetriage.com/pytest-dev/pytest). The more people you have subscribed to this repo on CodeTriage, the more help it will get on this project. The more 👀’s the better. ------------------------------ You subscribed to pytest on CodeTriage!

That’s pretty awesome. What’s next? You’ll get issues sent to your inbox periodically like this one: *pytest-dev/pytest#2449* warnings: support for logging.captureWarnings <https://u307627.ct.sendgrid.net/wf/click?upn=E2E2DIkTqIajPU6hMNRcRHG-2Flbe4QlJNOKZoJedwfv-2F7bAWZOlBnZ7OnRzvgfq49RKqnnFx8F4YG19mmjou6HA-3D-3D_wXFy2nOJ1XVOQei6Rg8EwVYdZS-2FdnbpAFtydSKD-2BGv2SPw5xO9m62RzBky8FRXoCXbX8o9H9Myw1SfS-2B1bsi6urCtfPVWQgr2f9OYacXqSbxtNOeN9AAW2WiU0hxKhIOnbMtftM7pfAVR4FhP0EApgokyUBRK6jURXeLqg9t3rWPER8zfHpi4nUzQqSESHbpNlOJjpqs-2Fih4hfuFpAtEFkSCfG40uSQi0NTplX73G04-3D> The rate at which we send emails backs off automatically when you get busy. You can also set you prefered email rate in your user settings. What do you do with an issue when it gets in your inbox? Try to triage it. How To Triage? First, carefully read over the issue, title, and description, if there are any comments read over all the comments, carefully. If a member of this repo is engaging actively there is no need to do anything, leaving a comment in the issue would just add to the clutter. If the issue hasn’t been updated in awhile, or if no one has commented consider the issue, if it is a bug try to reproduce it. If it is a pull request consider what an alternate implementation might look like. If there is something you don’t understand about the issue and feel others will have that same question please leave your question in the comments. Be as descriptive as possible. Comments like “I don’t understand this” are not helpful and counter productive. A better comment might be “Can you help me understand a use case for this?”. If you can reproduce the issue or you believe it is a good pull request, add a comment and say why you think that is. Try to stay positive while triaging issues, ask questions before you downvote something. If you do decide to 👍 or 👎 on an issue, leave a comment as to why you feel that way. Issues are for social coding, if you help someone make better issues, you’re helping the community. If the issue goes stale, leave a comment asking if it is still a problem. If you get no response for a number of days, you can leave another comment suggesting to the repo owner that they should close the issue.
