How to add a new item to the status field in Bugzilla?

To add a new item to the status field, namely 'Reopen'. In the admin section of zilla its clearly there. Now when we 
go to edit a bug we can never see this new field, all we can initially see is Assigned, New, Resolved. After changing the bug status to Resolved we can then see some other statuses like Reopened, verified 
and closed but not 'Reopen'.


To solve this i have followed the steps which is mentioned below:


1. From Administration>Field Values>Status, make sure that the new status
you created is open for bug entry. 

2. Once this is done, on Administration>Bug Status Workflow, make sure the
status transitions are set. 

selenese converter

Hi friends,
            Did you hear about selenese converter (from html to java(junit))?, Few months back i got a chance to work liferay's selenium testing, in that they have already written a java file to convert many html files to java files at one shot. So using that idea i started working to create a converter for all websites.
(one more point i forgot to say with handling the dynamic id's in web page.)

Hope i will finish it soon and update the status in my blog.

What is maven?

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.

Maven's Objectives

Maven's primary goal is to allow a developer to comprehend the complete state of a development effort in the shortest period of time. In order to attain this goal there are several areas of concern that Maven attempts to deal with:

• Making the build process easy
• Providing a uniform build system
• Providing quality project information
• Providing guidelines for best practices development
• Allowing transparent migration to new features
