Open Source Comes to Campus/Newcomer Tasks/Issue Tracker Cleaning

Overview

Sometimes communities need help handling all the issues that have been reported. They need to know whether bugs can be reproduced and whether patches/pull requests work as intended. You can help them out by a) reproducing bugs and b) reviewing patches! Along the way, you'll learn a ton about the project.

There are two main types of task you can choose to work on: reproducing bugs, and reviewing patches. Find out how to do each of these tasks below.

Before you begin, you will need to pick a project to contribute to. To do this, try our Finding a Project activity.
