My Activities
●
So far, my activities for the past two months focused
on Quality Assurance: bugs triage.
この 2 ヶ月は QA のバグトリアージに注力
●
The process is simple, to keep track of the bugs and
check if they are reproducible and if there are
eventual duplicates to help developers to solve them
quickly.
バグを追跡、再現確認や重複を確認して、開発者を助ける
●
It’s difficult to estimate the how many of them I
tracked.
