If you are already familiar with the original
Bugzilla Search Form,
you may prefer this form.
Type in one or more words (or word fragments) to search for:
Getting Started
-
This is case-insensitive search:
- table, Table and TABLE are all the same.
-
This is all words as substrings
search.
Therefore you should use stems to get better results:
-
Use localiz instead of localize or
localization.
-
Use bookmark instead of bookmarks or
bookmarking.
-
Boolean operations: “-foo” (NOT),
“foo bar” (AND),
“foo|bar” (OR).
-
NOT:
Use -foo to exclude bugs
with foo in the summary.
-
AND:
Space-separated words are treated as a conjunction.
-
OR:
Within a word, "|"-separated parts denote alternatives.
-
Besides "|", a comma can be used to separate alternatives.
-
OR has higher precedence than AND; AND is the top level operation.
Example:
url,location bar,field -focus means
(url OR location) AND (bar OR field)
AND (NOT focus)
-
Use +foo to search for bugs where the
summary contains foo as a
substring.
Use #foo to search for bugs where the
summary contains the word foo.
-
+brow does not find all bugs in the
Browser product.
-
#title does not find bugs with titlebar
or titled.
Phrases with special chars (space, comma, +, -, #, …) can be
quoted:
-
Open vs. Resolved Bugs:
By default, only open (i.e. unresolved) bugs are shown.
Use +DUP as first word in your search to include duplicate
bugs in your search,
FIXED to search for fixed bugs only,
or ALL to search all bugs,
regardless of status or resolution.
Searching for duplicates is recommended if you can't find an open
bug directly.
-
+DUP,FIXED table border
-
ALL mouse wheel
-
Focus the Search with Products &
Components:
To search for bugs in product "Foo Bar" only, add
:foo or :bar or both to your search.
You can do this with any substring of a
product or component to focus the
search.
More Tips
-
You can also use this tool to lookup a bug by
its number:
-
A comma-separated list of bug numbers gives you a list of these
bugs:
By default, the following fields are searched: Summary, Keywords, Product,
Component, Status Whiteboard. If a word looks like a part of a URL, that field
is included in the search, too.
