    In midnights? In cups of coffee? In laughter? In strife? I measure in GB. I get an email whenever the website I work on experiences an error, and from the past few months that folder is now 4GB. :sigh:

      I think GeorgeBushs are a good measure, but gigabytes aren't. I manually grade each bug, usually using values of 1, 2 and 3 (easy, medium/normal, bloody difficult), and look at the sum of all bug values over a period of time. You might find a system with more values (for example cosmetic, easy, regular, difficult, took ages to diagnose/fix) more useful, I'm pretty happy with just three values - there are many-many-many cosmetic bugs, whereas the really awful ones are rare, so the fact that occasionally a bug takes three days to fix is canceled out by the maybe 100 trivial bugs fixed during the same time.

          I have a few friends who introduced it to me; I like it too. I think my aspie side appreciates the numeric aspect. :rolleyes: For the uninitiated, this is from Rent.

                  Most of the time. Doesn't seem to work for web services, though.

                  It can be done. It require just a little more work though.

                      I wouldn't admit that I'm working on something that produces that many errors, not publicly or under inquisition...

                        But the software I'm working on is an error handler checker.

                          I'm not concerned with saving space. It's just sad there are so many errors.

                          I just thought that if you measure your errors in GB, and you zip them, you have less errors ;)

                            At least you know the automatic error reporting works... :-\

                            The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

                              That's not for bugs, that's a quantitative measure of code quality during code review.
