Open Source Bug Tracking?
-
Hey All, A while back I posted a question about open source version control software. I got a lot of great feedback, thanks for all the good responses. Our workflow now includes SVN for version control (with Tortoise SVN on the client side), MSBuild for building stuff, and CruiseControl.net for Continuous integration (still working on getting the last two set up). We are currently using Outlook for issue tracking, ie lots of emails back and forth, etc. I notice things tend to get lost easily this way. Surely, someone has had some experience with a simple open source/free issue stracking setup. Just looking for something basica that will allow us to track issues, assign priorities, assign a developer to an issue, etc. Anybody have suggestions? Thanks! Aaron

lots of them, but if you want simple simple.... CodeTrack uses PHP and Apache only, no SQL server needed, all data is stored in XML. That will do for a small site, obviosly falls apart with larger developer groups, which was what bugzilla was designed for. Track+ has a 10 person limit for the free version as does something someone else posted called Gemini. Tutos also has a decent one, but requires about as many manual steps to setup as doing Bugzilla under Windows. Bugzilla under Linux is supposed to be easy. If I knew PHP I would love to modify CodeTrack to fit our needs... maybe I need to do that this weekend. hmmmmmm.... :sigh: _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

There's a project here on CP called SWAT that you could use, but may require some modifications and whatnot ... Part 9 of the 9 part series SWAT Part 9[^]

We use Gemini as well so it gets my vote, but bear in mind it isn't actually open source. You'll also need a machine running IIS and SQL server too, although you should be able to deploy it on SQL Server 2005 Express.

So many choices . . . I'm not even sure really what I should be looking for when comparing one against the other. Bugzilla does have a cool tshirt, though . . .

Trac (http://www.edgewall.com/trac/[^]) is excellent - we're using it on 3 projects here at work. It's open source, and is based primarily on Python and Apache (other http servers too, but I've found Apache route to be easiest to get up and running on a Windows machine). It includes a Wiki and subversion repository integration. For instance, in the 'fix' comment for a ticket, you can provide a link to the Subversion checkin set that included the fix to that ticket. Clicking on that link will bring up a nicely formatted diff of the files in that checkin set. Pretty cool stuff.

Far from excellent - too simplistic and lacking basic customization features. But it is simple to use and integrates well with SVN

I'm not doubting you. Actually, great minds think alike. In order to get to know SQL Server Express, I started development on my own Project Management database. I haven't finished adding everything yet, and I don't have any web pages to interact with it, but it is coming along nicely. However, there are too many out there for it to pose a challenge to anyone. Maybe Microsoft or Google will see us as threats and purchase our products. <insert>Wishful thinking.</insert> :-D "If only one person knows the truth, it is still the truth." - Mahatma Gandhi Web - Blog - RSS - Math
