Tracking bugs in Extras

Revision as of 10:56, 26 May 2012

Note: Work in progress

A bugtracker is a software application used by developers for keeping tracks of reported bugs in their work.

Bugtrackers give both developers and users a lot of benefits.

Developers:

They are notified when a bug is found in their applications
They keep track of reported bugs so that they can organize their work
They can easily communicate with reporters if they need more information or further testing

Users:

You can find more info about how to add a bugtracker field in your application here.

Actually, these bugtrackers links are considered valid:

A link to a product dedicated page in bugs.maemo.org (e.g. https://bugs.maemo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xxx)
- See Bugs:Adding Extra products for how to add a product
A link to a product dedicated page in another known bugtracker (e.g. Google Code, Gitorious, etc.)
A link to a Garage bugtracker (e.g. https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/?group_id=xxxx)
A mailto link (just for small applications)
A link to an opened thread about the application in talk.maemo.org (e.g. http://talk.maemo.com/showthread=xxxxxx)

The following bugtracker links are NOT considered valid:

General links that do not lead to a dedicated page (e.g. http://talk.maemo.org or https://bugs.maemo.org)
Misspelled links (e.g. links starting with "xsbc-bugtracker")
