Questions or discussions are more +appropriate for the [mailing list]. + +For issue reports to be actionable, it must be clear exactly +what the observed and expected behaviours are, and how to set up +the state required to observe the erroneous behaviour. The most +useful thing to provide is a minimal HTML document which permits +the problem to be reproduced along with a [trace-level log] from +geckodriver showing the exact wire protocol calls made. + +Because of the wide variety and different charateristics of clients +used with geckodriver, their stacktraces, logs, and code examples are +typically not very useful as they distract from the actual underlying +cause. **For this reason, we cannot overstate the importance of +always providing the [trace-level log] from geckodriver.** Bugs +relating to a specific client should be filed with that project. + +We welcome you to file issues in the [GitHub issue tracker] once you are +confident it has not already been reported. The [ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md] +contains a helpful checklist for things we will want to know about +the affected system, reproduction steps, and logs. + +geckodriver development follows a rolling release model as +we don’t release patches for older versions. It is therefore +useful to use the tip-of-tree geckodriver binary, or failing this, +the latest release when verifying the problem. geckodriver is only +compatible with the current release channel versions of Firefox, and +it consequently does not help to report bugs that affect outdated +and unsupported Firefoxen. Please always try to verify the issue +in the latest Firefox Nightly before you file your bug. + +Once we are satisfied the issue raised is of sufficiently actionable +character, we will continue with triaging it and file a bug where it +is appropriate. Bugs specific to geckodriver will be filed in the +[`Testing :: geckodriver`] component in Bugzilla. + +[mailing list]: index.rst/#communication +[trace-level log]: TraceLogs.md +[GitHub issue tracker]: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/issues +[ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md]: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mozilla/geckodriver/master/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md +[`Testing :: geckodriver`]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?component=geckodriver |
