[Posted in ASP.Net forum] Bug Tracking for ASP.Net Website
-
So every new website launched (revamped or whatever) these days ought to have good Bug Tracking/Reporting systems in place as no website is perfect first time. However, I have not recently come across a system that actually works well and would apply to my websites situation. I am trying to make a cloud app where users access stuff entirely online through my site but obviously as I have written the (primitive) access program to them myself, it is going to have bugs. I therefore need a system to allow bug reporting/viewing/tracking or whatever you want to call it. So what do people think is the best way of doing it? Obviously the basic requirements are:
- A list of existing bug reports (including which are being worked on)
- Some method of submitting a bug report
- A way for me (the developer) to respond effectively to bug reports and tell users that I am doing so.
Could anyone offer any insite/comment/help as to how best to do this? Thanks very much, Ed Edit: This thread has been reposted by OP in ASP.Net forum - please see here for full thread: New Thread[^]

I think this question belongs in the ASP.NET Forum[^].

Yes my apologies ( :-O ) I had written it as a more general question for C# but then realised that was a rubbish question (too general) so rewrote it but forgot to change forum... There doesn't appear to be a way for me to shift it to the other forum though?! Not without deleting and re-posting... :~

Unfortunately a feature that does not yet exist. However, you could add a comment to that effect and re-post in ASP.NET forum.

I'd suggest Spolsky's FogBugz[^]. You might find additional suggestions on our Free Tools[^] forum.

Thanks but this doesn't really help (unless I have totally missed something from FogBuzz). I need either a system that can integrate as part of my website so that anyone can log bugs (without needing to log in) or just some ideas as to what makes a good bug tracker.

Aaah thanks! The main site really didn't make it clear to me that users can do stuff all online! And by email would be fantastic! I will try and integrate it immediately :D Thank you very much! Any tips on installation/integration? Thanks very much, Ed

They've got a special section on plugins[^], hook up SourceSafe[^].. Aw, with integration you mean tips on embedding it in the website, of course, not integration with other apps. Ehr, no tips there, I'm a WinForms person. My idea of embedding a website is an
