Bug filing should be done end of the testing event I think.

Also bugzill workflow states the fist step as:
* Search for equivalent existing bugs before filing a new bug

However, as we know, we might duplicate bugs, where bug triaging would
come into place and help upto some extent. I do not seem to find any
other better solution in order to avoid the problem of multiple testers
updating the same wiki page at the same time! :(

Thanks!
