Hi Jeff,
Thanks to help from Marco Castelluccio we now have an artifact in taskcluster
that has metadata about all commits that land in m-c, which I've used to gather
this data. We're still working on tooling to better understand patterns with
different types of bugs & patches, but I'm happy to
Brian,
Now that we've been doing this for a while, do we have any aggregated
data on the testing tags? i.e. how often are we adding tests vs not.

Better test coverage is the best. Agreed, having a policy to force developers
to add tests must be an efficient way to improve test coverage. I worried
though it may reduce amount of contributions from the community since it
complicates the development process: sometimes you have to spend more t

- thanks!
One thing did strike me as a little surprising, and could perhaps b
This change is fantastic, thanks for driving it!
Reviewers should not need to feel bad about asking authors to go back and
add tests, making this official policy removes that burden of guilt (just
