Bug Verifications

When you verify the bug is fixed, resolve it as VERIFIED FIXED and replace the fixed1.8.0.8 keyword with verified1.8.0.8

Tips:

  • Bugs verified on 1.8.1 still need to be verified in 1.8.0.8
  • If you don't see an easy way to verify or need further clarification add a comment to the bug or add "[needs testcase]" (without quotes) to the bug's Status Whiteboard.
