Curious: Which Bug Tracking Software Does Your Team Use?
-
I'm quite curious about the bug tracking software that teams are using. Does your QA team use any bug tracking software at all? How do they report bugs to devs? Do they just send email or write the bug on a scrap of paper? If you do use anything, is it custom -- something written in-house? Or if it is a commercial or open-source package or other that is available, what is it called?

I've used 1. TFS 2. BugZilla 3. OnTime 4. Axosoft 5. Excel 6. One Note 7. A homegrown app I wrote and some other one too
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

We are using a home made system - made 15 years ago and extended with web portal 10 years ago...

We use JIRA by Atlassian. It is Web-based, with great pricing that scales with the team size and budget needs. Features many useful plugins accessible via a Plugin Store[^]. Some are free, some are paid. Hope it helps!

The other Max approves.
I'd rather be phishing!

We are going to switch to JIRA in a few months... I'm glad to hear it is good...

Just to chime in here, I'm quite happy nowadays using GitHub's issue tracker. And it was painless[^] to integrate into the client's website, so they can keep tabs on issues. :) That said, I've worked with several others, and as others have posted, they all pretty much suck. One day I will write a decent bug tracker, one that is configurable to the project needs, isn't dog slow, doesn't clutter your screen with a ton of "I don't give a shit about that field", is interactive rather than just statically showing issues, easily quantizable (think "sprints" but don't think "sprints") And by interactive, I mean being able to say "here's some issues I'll be working on" and it could ask how progress is going, what issues / dependencies have been encountered, etc. Marc

That's quite a mature system. Is it non-intrusive ie - not annoying to use? Just curious. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for feedback on Bugzilla. Also, that is the same thing I've found. They all mostly suck.

I've heard of Fogbugz because I've heard of Joel On Software. Thanks for the feedback.

Great link. Didn't know that existed. Thanks very much. Sorry for the rerun. :)

Thanks for the feedback. I see your comment us upvoted by someone else too, so maybe they are chiming in that JIRA is not too bad?

Thanks for the feedback. I like the GitHub articlet too. It would be very cool to have something that integrated with Git &/or Hg so I could commit fixes, enter the bug number and then the same comment in the commit would go into the bug tracking software. Yes, I'm dreaming. :)

:thumbsup: Have found several circular references here. Answers to many questions are found here itself, so CP is kind of a self-sufficient universe. No need of Google, Bing, etc.

As it was originally tailored for our support team and matured with that team (with additions and fixes per request) it is very easy to use - for the team at least. I can't promise that everyone will find it easy-to-use, after all it has a rather old UI... But for us it is the best...Now that there is a plan to move to JIRA we all scared a bit...

Back when I was a rookie, we used this tracking system[^]. I would not exactly call it software. It was more like a pile of analog electronics with a analog computer.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.
