How Can You Help Test?

Testing is easy for new and old users alike. The list of ways to get involved below are just the start. For more information on how to help, check out QMO.

Run Testcases in Litmus

One of the simplest ways to test is by running Litmus tests. These tests are easy to use, so create an account and dive in.

Reporting Bugs

Found a problem? Reporting bugs is another simple way to help. You can file bug reports to Mozilla's bug tracking system which gets triaged by volunteers. As you learn more, you can help triage bugs as well!

Submit crash reports

Please use the Crash Reporter and turn it on when it asks. The Crash Reporter reports give us really valuable data on which crashes are the most serious, and how often people are encountering them. All you have to do is make sure the "Tell Mozilla about this crash" box is checked. After reporting, you can view your crash reports by typing about:crashes in the location bar.

Use the Reporter Tool

Firefox comes with a tool for reporting broken web sites. From the 'Help' menu, select 'Report Broken Web Site' and provide as much information as you can about the issue that you are encountering. You can view reports on the Reporter website.

Mozilla QA Companion

The Mozilla QA Companion (QAC) is a new tool that was created after discussions between the QA team and community about how to make it easier for anyone to get involved with the Mozilla project and help us test Firefox.

For more information check out the QAC page on QMO.
