Provide more information about bugs, to allow easier selection
captainbrosset opened this issue · comments
The tool is all about helping people finding devtools bugs to work on. Right now this is achieved by:
- selecting the type of bug (easy, mentored)
- selecting one or more tools
- once a list is displayed, searching by keywords in the bug titles.
The search bar may not be all that useful since it only searches in bug titles and people might not really know what to type in the first place.
So once a list is displayed, there may be a lot of bugs for people to choose from, with little context about what each one is about.
One thing the tool does is display the first bug comment if you click on the expand icon, this helps provide more context.
But it's very possible that people would end up opening lot's of new browser tabs on specific bugzilla entries while browsing through the list, simply because the tool doesn't provide enough information about each bug and so they'd need to open each bug one by one to really choose.
The tool should help better here.
- Make it easier to toggle the first comment (right now it's only a small icon),
- maybe have a bigger panel where the whole list of comments for the bug is displayed when the title is clicked,
- ...
The goal is to make sure the tool does as much as it can to ensure users end up with a candidate bug to fix.
