Bug Tracker

Bug Tracker is an In-House Test Suite used in Xponse Technologies. It has a Test Case repository (Store and View) and can perform tracking of bugs facilities.

Features in Bug-Tracker

Post Bugs: On testing a particular software or application, if a bug is detected, it is posted in the bug tracker. Posting of bugs is done under four main heads, viz, Bug Description, Tester Comments, Location of Defect and Page URL. The tester can also set the severity level of the bug.

View Bugs: Testers and only the QA manager have the privilege to view the following:

Bug id: A unique auto generated id is assigned to a particular bug.

Progress Status (PS): PS shows whether a bug has been assigned to a developer for fixing or not. If a bug has remained unassigned then PS shows blank. On the contrary, if a bug has been assigned but has remained unresolved, PS shows a blue icon. If it has been resolved the color of the PS icon changes to red.

Assigned Date: Assigned date shows the date on which the bug has been assigned to a developer for fixing.
In addition to the name of the person who posted the bug, priority of the bug and the subject line of the bug description can also be viewed.
After the resolved bug is retested, the tester can close the bug. The tester can also delete a particular bug.

Search Bugs: A tester can search a bug using different filters.

Add Test Case Steps: Test case for a particular project can be prepared by a tester or a quality assurance executive. While preparing a test case a tester has to take into consideration the following steps:

Input Data: It refers to the data that is keyed in to carry out testing of a particular feature of software.

Action: Action refers to the action performed while testing software.

Expected Result: It refers to the expected response of a software feature after a particular action has been performed. If the expected result matches with the actual result, then the particular step is passed. Otherwise it fails. The following illustration will make the idea clear:

View Test Case Steps: The test case steps can be viewed by selecting a particular project name, test case name and sequence no.
