A year from now, I started to contribute to Mozilla. Mozregression (a regression range finder for Mozilla nightly and inbound builds) was one of the first projects that catched my attention: I made one patch, then another, and one again… I was mentored by the awesome William Lachance. Since then, I became one of the core contributors and a packager for mozregression and am now myself mentoring people for new contributions on this project!

At the time of the Google Summer of Code, William and I thought about adding a graphical interface for mozregression. Unfortunately, Mozilla was not accepted for gsoc 2015 – but still the idea was interesting – and we worked on it anyway.

And here we are! Ready for a first release of mozregression-gui! Please give it a try, and help us by reporting bugs and giving feedback. 🙂 For now we provide binaries for Windows and Linux 64 (a Mac port is planned) but it is still possible to build from sources for each platform.

Much work remains to be done on the GUI, and this is a good place to start contributing to Mozilla – so if you’d like to hack with Python and Qt don’t wait and get involved!
