Notes on the work on a set of criteria for finding explosive crash reports - [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=629049 bug 629049] is the tracker bug, [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=629062 bug 629062] is detection. The [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Socorro:PRD_2.x#New_.2F_explosive_.2F_critical_crash_tracking PRD doc] has some surrounding info, but no criteria yet.

=== Personal Notes ===
 
* Sharp increase at certain wall-clock time across versions
* Sharp increase at certain build ID (date?) on single version/series (possibly ignoring everything in version string starting with first letter if the version ends in "pre", to have e.g. 5.0a3pre->5.0b1pre or 4.0b11pre->4.0b12pre not disturb the analysis)
* Ignore (suspected) duplicates
* Frequency weighted by ADU more important than bare count (from something chofmann has said)

  My suggestion for a delta to watch is an increase in crash frequency of more
  than 50-75% and new crashes in the top 20 overall signatures by version.

On a planet called Veridian III, a decisive battle was fought to prevent a future firing of a rocket into a star that would change gravitational forces and make "the nexus" crash into the planet as well as destroy the planet with a shock wave. Preventing this catastrophy made the crash of the USS Enterprise on the planet controllable as to suffer no human casualties.

In the same spirit, the project I internally dub "Veridian 3" is about dealing with crashes to make the bad ones preventable and other ones more controllable, all through prioritizing Socorro work.

Project areas

Those areas have been specified in the contract:

  • Improving Crash Data Integrity
    • Identification and Removal of Duplicate Crash reports
  • Improving Search Capabilities
  • Improving Classification and Characterization of Crash Reports and Improved Signature Generation
  • additional correlation reports to help identifying circumstances around the crash and steps to reproduce
  • Improve Trend Reports to identify and alert teams about Explosive bugs
