About this template

Centralised bug management

Introducing the bug tracking template, your centralised solution for managing internal bug reports efficiently. This template is designed to streamline the process of discussing and triaging bugs within your team, ensuring that issues are addressed promptly and effectively. By consolidating all bug-related communication in one place, this template not only enhances team coordination but also improves the speed and quality of your software development cycle.

Streamlined bug reporting

With the ‘Submit a bug’ workflow, this template simplifies the process of reporting new issues. Team members can easily log bugs as they encounter them, without disrupting their flow of work. This feature ensures that every bug is captured in real time and entered into the system for triage and resolution. Streamlining bug reporting not only saves time but also encourages team members to report issues promptly, leading to quicker fixes and a more reliable and stable product.

Automated bug tracking

Our bug tracking template includes an automated bugs tracker list, where new bugs are added as soon as they are reported. This dynamic list serves as a live inventory of current issues, allowing team members to see what’s been reported, track progress on resolutions and prioritise tasks effectively. This template also includes an automatic weekly bugs summary and status change alerts to prevents bugs from slipping through the cracks and ensures that every issue receives the attention it needs. 

Guided bug submission

To assist team members in reporting bugs accurately and in a standard way, the template features a ‘How to submit a bug’ canvas. This instructional guide provides clear, step-by-step instructions on what information to include when reporting a bug, such as screenshots, steps to reproduce and severity levels. By educating team members on how to submit detailed, useful bug reports, this guide helps to improve the quality of submissions, facilitating faster and more effective bug resolution.
