Details

As part of our daily life we have to close invalid bugs made by students to try some cool web API or for test purposes. Typical flow is:

  1. move bug to "invalid bugs"
  2. remove security flags
  3. mark comment as spam
  4. close as INVALID
  5. post a warning message
Please stop using Bugzilla for testing, this is not a playground, it's a production system sending emails to hundreds of people and wasting triage resources.

Your account will be disabled if you keep using it for testing purposes.

If someone asked you to file this bug as part of an assignment (e.g. college/university class), please provide information on how to get in touch with the organizers, and ask them to stop. You can use https://bugzilla-dev.allizom.org/ instead, with a GitHub login.

Can we add a magic button to perform all these steps in one sweet move? Or may be the fact of moving to Invalid bugs can be a trigger to do these steps?

If you remove the security flags, the autonag bot might notice the spam bug and perform the rest of the steps automatically.

If you remove the security flags, the autonag bot might notice the spam bug and perform the rest of the steps automatically.

That's good to know, but I'd prefer to have that button. Otherwise I'll need to remove security flag and check that bot closed it.

Will take a look at this but not sure yet of timeframe.
