What is a Bug Report Template?
A bug report template is a standardized format for documenting software defects. It ensures every report includes the information developers need to reproduce, diagnose, and fix issues — from environment details and reproduction steps to expected versus actual behavior.
How to use it
Pick a preset template (Standard, Mobile, API, or UI/UX) and copy it directly, or switch to Form mode and fill in the structured fields. Once complete, copy the generated Markdown to your clipboard or download it as a .md file to attach to your issue tracker.
What makes a good bug report?
A good bug report has a clear, searchable title, precise reproduction steps that anyone can follow, and a comparison of expected versus actual behavior. Include environment details (OS, browser, app version), attach screenshots or recordings, and keep each report focused on a single issue.
Severity vs Priority
Severity measures the technical impact of a bug (Critical = system crash or data loss, Low = cosmetic). Priority indicates business urgency — when to fix it (P0 = immediately, P3 = backlog). A typo on a landing page might be Low severity but High priority before a launch.
Bug report best practices
Always include screenshots or screen recordings when possible. Document the exact environment (OS version, browser, device). Write numbered steps to reproduce so anyone can verify. File one bug per report — mixed reports slow down triage. Link related issues and note whether the bug is consistent or intermittent.
