What is a bug?

A bug when we talk about is an insect which is small but can give major problems to a human being; same is the case of Software product. A bug is generally a defect which creates hindrance in perfectly working product. When the acutal result is not same as the expected result, it is generally known as bug. In other terms a bug can also be referred as issue, defect, flaw or failure.

What is a bug report?

A bug report explains how the issue exactly occurs. In bug reports a tester includes each step that how specific fault occurred and how we can easily help a developer to understand it.

What is a Good Bug Report?

Understandable - The bug report should be easily understandable by the reader.
Reproducible – Bugs found by the software tester should be reproducible , means a tester must write the exact steps to be followed so that the root cause can be understood by developer , else he can always mark it as “ invalid “ which is a major set back to a software tester.
Specific - The faster the developer can understand the actual issue to a specific problem, there are more chances to have faster resolution rates. Bug fixing becomes convenient.
Attachments - Remember that every bug report should include at least one attachment. Acceptable attachments include videos, images, screenshots, and logs.
