[[Category:BugSquad]]
The BugSquad to is the Quality Assurance (QA) team for Sugar. We test programs, work with downstream distributions and upstream applications to ensure good good bug and patch flow, triage bug reports, and manage the trac bug database.

== About ==
The Sugar Labs BugSquad keeps track of current bugs in the Sugar software and tries to make sure that bugs are triaged and handled correctly. The team does not do testing itself. This is done by the downstream projects shipping Sugar. See [[BugSquad/Testing|testing]].
You need only be interested in the programming process to be in the BugSquad; in fact it is a great way to return something to the Sugar community if you cannot program. If you have an interest in the programming and development process, you can learn a great deal from the communications of those involved. However, see this thread for what can happen if insufficient respect and deference is applied: http://www.mail-archive.com/devel@lists.laptop.org/msg18897.html.
see [[BugSquad/Testing]]
The squad is modeled on the GNOME BugSquad: https://webstats.gnome.org/Bugsquad/
== Working with Distributions ==
== How bugs are tracked ==
* We use [http://trac.edgewall.org/ trac] to keep track of bugs in the Sugar software. The Sugar Labs trac instance can be found at [http://bugs.sugarlabs.org bugs.sugarlabs.org].
* See [[BugSquad/Bug Report]] for an introduction to bug reporting.
* Other Linux distributions where Sugar runs have their own [[BugSquad/Upstreaming_bugs|upstream]] bug tracking systems.
== Working with Application Developers ==
== Upstream bugs ==
When you find a bug in a package we do not directly maintain, please report it [[BugSquad/Upstreaming_bugs|upstream]]
== Managing the Bug Database ==
== How to join the squad ==
As mentioned above, virtually anyone can be helpful. Best way to get started is by reading the [[BugSquad/Triage Guide]] and to join us at #sugar on irc.freenode.net.
