You wrote the codes. Now, it’s time for the number one developers’ pain point, according to this survey. Bug fixing. It’s revealed in the survey that 32% of developers spent up to 10 hours a week fixing bugs, instead of writing codes. Knowing that bug fixing takes a lot of a developer’s time, you need to make sure that they are doing it correctly, and in an organized way. Especially if they’re working in a team, they need a reliable collaboration system to keep track of the bugs that are being fixed. To make things simpler and coordination easier, use Kanban Zone’s Bug Tracking Template!

What is a Bug Tracking Template?

The Bug Tracking template is a simple Kanban board template that can help you manage and monitor bugs that you find in your software. Designed for a team, this template is easy to use, but robust enough to include all of the phases in a bug lifecycle. Your developers will be able to operate the template in no time.

What is included in the template?

If you use this template, you’ll get:

  • Five columns with explicit agreements: New, Open, Waiting for Fix, Test, and Closed.
  • Five labels to signify the type of the bug: Functional, Performance, Compatibility, Security, and Usability
  • A card template for the bug so you only need to fill in the blanks for the details of the bug.
  • A board that is shared with your team members, so you can collaborate on the cards.

How to Use the Template

  1. Start your Free Trial, then build a new board from the Bug Tracking Template.
  2. Anyone can submit a bug to the board. Fill in the steps to reproduce, result, and expected result. Put the card in the Active column.
  3. Assign someone the card to investigate the bug and solve it.
  4. After it’s fixed, drag the card to Test for the QA to test it.
  5. If the bug comes back, drag the card back to Reopened.
  6. If the bug is solved and tested, drag the card to Closed.

A well-functioning bug-tracking system will improve the quality of the software, reduce the time it takes to identify and fix the bug, and increase users’ satisfaction. Start using our bug-tracking template today, and your bug-hunting and bug-fixing processes will be a breeze.
