    We are looking for a simple issue tracking system to improve the formality/structure of our bug reporting / fixing / testing cycle. We don't really need anything complicated like SLA management, time spent on issue, milestones etc. Things we would like: - somewhere to describe the issue - somewhere to describe the fix - a basic priority for the issue - a basic classification for the issue (e.g., documentation issue, bug, feature request) - ability to search the issue/fix database - record who fixed the issue, and when - record who tested the fix, and when - SVN integration would be nice (but somewhere to record the commits related to the fix would do) Most of the things we've looked at so far are way more complicated (and/or expensive) than we require (we have 2.5 devs and 1 support person, developing a very complex, niche technical product with a 20+yr old code-base), but I'm interested to know what others are using (especially if you are in a small team). Cheers.

    I use TFS (ADO Dev Ops) hosted at Microsoft.  My cost is zero, as is the cost for companies of less than 5 persons.  Feel free to ping me and I can give you a demo.  Setup took zero units of time. /ravi

                  Thanks I'm having a play with this - I like that I can hide the sections for projects, like the Repos since we wouldn't use them. It looks like this could be pared back to what we would want... will have to get the boss to look at it too. Still maybe not so keen on the info not being 'in house' so to speak - the advantages of working 'in the cloud' aren't that strong for me. EDIT - Ah! I see there is there 'Server' and the 'Services' so we can keep it in house. Are they otherwise the same?

                            You could create a “tracking” folder in your SVN where you check in a text or markdown file along with the changes. Have a standard template that you clone. Consider simple http header like format for searching via regex. It will be committed on the same revision with the changes. If you have your work files on an SSD this would be viable for 10,000+ commits or so (for searching) Create project/epic/yearly sub folders to help organize if desired.

                                    I am a fan of the JetBrains Tools and therefore we (3 dev's) use JetBrains YouTrack. It's on premise, free for 10 Dev's and you can but do not have to use the complete functionality with timereporting and so on. Additionally if you may later want that you could directly connect their tool for code reviews, the build server application for CI and the so called HUB as the main manager for logins and projects. But as far as i know you'd get most of this also by gitLab, which i think should also be free up to a certain amount?

                                      It's much more fun and sportsmanlike to omit the description... :-D

                                        We are looking for a simple issue tracking system to improve the formality/structure of our bug reporting / fixing / testing cycle. We don't really need anything complicated like SLA management, time spent on issue, milestones etc. Things we would like: - somewhere to describe the issue - somewhere to describe the fix - a basic priority for the issue - a basic classification for the issue (e.g., documentation issue, bug, feature request) - ability to search the issue/fix database - record who fixed the issue, and when - record who tested the fix, and when - SVN integration would be nice (but somewhere to record the commits related to the fix would do) Most of the things we've looked at so far are way more complicated (and/or expensive) than we require (we have 2.5 devs and 1 support person, developing a very complex, niche technical product with a 20+yr old code-base), but I'm interested to know what others are using (especially if you are in a small team). Cheers.

                                          Redmine has a free version, usable for comemrcial purpose. It's not wonderful but it works.
