How and why web developers should file bug reports and test browser nightlies (ejohn.org)

Browser developers should make it easier for us to send bug reports :-)

It would be nice to have a button on my toolbar which just bundles up everything I'm looking at, attaches it to a bug report with all of the browser details filled in, and lets me type a little text. If you want my bug reports, you need to make it easier to give it to you than to swear about it.



Cool. Now integrate it into the developer toolbar that I am more likely to have installed.


You should check out http://web.mac.com/reinholdpenner/Software/Home.html if you are on OSX. Reinhold made three great apps which download the lastest version of Firefox, Webkit and Camino for you automagically. They are Firefix, Nightshift and CaminoKnight respectively.

An absolute must to follow John's advice.
