Finding bugs to triage

There are many places you can look for new bugs to triage. Usually the first link below will provide more than enough bugs for you to look at:

• There is a list of new bugs filed today to be triaged.

• There are many older bugs that have not been commented on for many months: see this query

If you're having a hard time finding bugs to triage in the above lists, you can also use bugzilla's search/query page. There are some examples of using it below. Note that these searches can be saved for later use, which can come in handy.

• All the unconfirmed bugs changed in the last few days. The core-bugs-today report only lists bugs filed against certain products and components. This search will get all the recent unconfirmed bugs (well, those which don't have the bugsquad keyword set).

• All the new bugs changed in the last couple days. This is similar to the recent unconfirmed bugs search above.

• Bugs with the words crash or process in the summary. These bugs tend to be ones that won't have enough information and that need to be marked as NEEDINFO.

Another place to check is the bugzilla web page. Look under the reports section.

Finally, sometimes the bugsquad will create special lists of bugs that we want to concentrate on for a certain Bug Day. You can find out about these on the Bugsquad/BugDays wiki page or by joining IRC #bugs on irc.gnome.org .
