Not + every sentence may precisely apply to your software project.</p> +</blockquote> + +<h3>How to Write a Useful [% terms.Bug %] Report</h3> + +<blockquote> + <p>Useful [% terms.bug %] reports are ones that get [% terms.bugs %] fixed. + A useful [% terms.bug %] report normally has two qualities:</p> + + <ol> + <li><b>Reproducible.</b> If an engineer can't see the [% terms.bug %] + herself to prove that it exists, she'll probably stamp your [% terms.bug %] + report "WORKSFORME" or "INVALID" and move on to the next [% terms.bug %]. + Every detail you can provide helps.<br> + <br> + </li> + + <li><b>Specific.</b> The quicker the engineer can isolate the + [% terms.bug %] to a specific area, the more likely she'll expediently + fix it.

If you + mix a handful of [% terms.bugs %] into a single report, the right people + probably won't discover your [% terms.bugs %] in a timely fashion, or at + all. Certain [% terms.bugs %] are also more important than others. It's + impossible to prioritize a [% terms.bug %] report when + it contains four different issues, all of differing importance.</p> + + <p><b>No [% terms.bug %] is too trivial to report.</b> Unless you're + reading the source code, you can't see actual software [% terms.bugs %], + like a dangling pointer -- you'll see their visible manifestations, such + as the segfault when the application finally crashes.

Those search keywords wouldn't have + found a [% terms.bug %] titled "<tt>Dragging icons doesn't paste</tt>".</p> + + <p>Ask yourself, "Would someone understand my [% terms.bug %] from just + this summary?"
