What a good bug report contains
- A specific title: what fails, where, and when. "Login button stays disabled after valid input" beats "Login not working".
- Environment: browser and version, OS, device, build or app version.
- Steps to reproduce: numbered, starting from a known state, so anyone can repeat them.
- Expected vs actual: the gap between the two is the bug.
- Severity, priority and frequency: how bad it is, how soon to fix it, how often it happens.
- Evidence: console errors, logs, screenshots or a short screen recording.
Formats and good habits
Markdown output starts with the title as a heading and puts each part under its own heading, such as ## Steps to reproduce, which GitHub, GitLab and Azure DevOps render nicely. Jira wiki markup uses h2. and # for numbered steps, and plain text suits email or Excel trackers.
Severity and priority are different. A typo on the home page is low severity but may be high priority before a launch; a crash in a rarely used admin report can be high severity but lower priority. Report one bug per ticket, search for duplicates first, and remove passwords, tokens and customer data from logs and screenshots. The tool runs in your browser and stores nothing. Turn the steps into a reusable check with the test case template generator.
Frequently asked questions
Does this connect to Jira?
No. It creates text you paste into Jira or any tracker. Nothing is sent from the page.
What is the difference between Blocker and Critical?
Blocker stops testing or use completely. Critical breaks a major feature but some work can continue.
Is the Bug Report Template Generator free?
Yes, the Bug Report Template Generator is free. The first time you generate your first report, you are asked for your name and WhatsApp number once. After that, this and every other Uncodemy tool opens straight away without the form.
