It's the weekly report on the state of triage in Firefox-related components. I’m writing this from a cafe in Helsink where the sun just came out.
Hotspots The components with the most untriaged bugs remain the JavaScript Engine and Build Config. It is great to see the number of untriaged bugs in Core: Graphics drop by half. Thank you, Milan. But JavaScript Engine, y’all need to do something with all your untriaged bugs. Are these bugs generated by automation like the intermittent test failure bugs? Rank Component Last Week This Week 1 Core: JavaScript Engine 446 449 2 Core: Build Config 421 429 3 Firefox for Android: General 410 411 4 Core: General 239 234 5 Firefox: General 238 242 6 Core: XPCOM 178 176 7 Core: Disability Access APIs 162 159 8 Core: Graphics 194 91 All Components 8,543 8,373 Please make sure you’ve made it clear what, if anything will happen with these bugs.

Bulk close them? Make them into P3s? Bugs without decisions add noise to our system, cause despair in those trying to triage bugs, and leaves the community wondering if we listen to them. Note I’m traveling from the 1st to the 17th. I plan to send out updates on the 7th and 14th, but they may be delayed. Methods and Definitions In this report I talk about bugs in Core, Firefox, Firefox for Android, Firefox for IOs, and Toolkit which are unresolved, not filed from treeherder using the intermittent-bug-filer account*, and have no pending needinfos. By triaged, I mean a bug has been marked as P1 (work on now), P2 (work on next), P3 (backlog), or P5 (will not work on but will accept a patch). A triage decision is not the same as a release decision (status and tracking flags.) https://mozilla.github.io/triage-report/#report Age of Untriaged Bugs The average age of a bug filed since June 1st of 2016 which has gone without triage. https://mozilla.github.io/triage-report/#date-report Untriaged Bugs in Current Cycle Bugs filed since the start of the Firefox 55 release cycle (March 6th, 2017) which do not have a triage decision. https://mzl.la/2u1R7gA Recommendation: review bugs you are responsible for ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=triage_owners.html) and make triage decision, or RESOLVE. Untriaged Bugs in Current Cycle Affecting Next Release Bugs marked status_firefox56 = affected and untriaged. https://mzl.la/2u2GCcG Enhancements in Release Cycle Bugs filed in the release cycle which are enhancement requests, severity = enhancement, and untriaged. Recommendation: product managers should review and mark as P3, P5, or RESOLVE as WONTFIX. High Priority Bugs without Owners Bugs with a priority of P1, which do not have an assignee, have not been modified in the past two weeks, and do not have pending needinfos. https://mzl.la/2u1VLem Recommendation: review priorities and assign bugs, re-prioritize to P2, P3, P5, or RESOLVE. Stalled High Priority Bugs There 159 bugs with a priority of P1, which have an assignee, but have not been modified in the past two weeks. https://mzl.la/2u2poMJ Recommendation: review assignments, determine if the priority should be changed to P2, P3, P5 or RESOLVE. * New intermittents are filed as P5s, and we are still cleaning up bugs after this change, See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1381587 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1381587>, https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1381960, and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1383923 If you have questions or enhancements you want to see in this report, please reply to me here, on IRC, or Slack and thank you for reading. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
