Tree sheriffs associate failures with bugs in Treeherder and Orange Factor, after which the Neglected Oranges tool helps identify failures lacking recent human comments. Frequently failing bugs may be monitored and disabled when they exceed the stated failure threshold or lack resources for a fix.

### AI overview

The author describes using Orange Factor to find frequent intermittent test failures and Bugzilla to identify neglected bugs. They share examples where checking recent changes and contacting relevant people led to prompt investigation or resolution, while noting that determining bug activity remains difficult.
