I'm currently looking at Bugzilla and Trac, as they seem to be the most popular (and I'm hoping that also means if there are any problems, it will be easier to get help), but I'm curious what solutions you use or have used and what your thoughts are. I'm currently leaning toward Trac, as it's Wiki functionality can be used to support do...
I have played with the idea of using a wiki (MediaWiki) to centralize all project information for a development project. This was done using extensions that pull information from SVN (using SVNKit) and by linking to Bugzilla to extract work assigned to a developer or work remaining for a release. Examples: <bugzilla type="summary" use...
Is there any way to enforce a template in Bugzilla to guide users fill in bugs descriptions ? Actually, i'd like to put some markup texts in the bug description field and avoid the creation of custom fields. I've installed version 3.2rc1. Thanks in advance ...
We've always used Bugzilla for issue/bug/enhancement tracking, but I keep thinking about switching to JIRA. However I would need to convince the boss that it's worth paying for something when a seemingly equivalent product is free of charge. So sell me! What about JIRA makes it worth paying for, compared to a free system like Bugzilla? ...
Any recommendations for companies offering bugzilla hosting? It's for maybe 5 people, but primarily for myself. I also need graphviz support for dependency tracking. Update: I've managed 3 bugzilla installs (one in which I did some fancy changes to the dot diagram output). One of these is still in use. I just don't want to maintain th...
We have MS Sharepoint -- which isn't all bad for managing a task list. The data's publicly available, people are notified of changes and assignments. I think that Bugzilla might be a little easier for management and reporting purposes. While there are some nice Open Source Scrum management tools, I've used up a lot of my political c...
I don't want to change how the Status field works I just want to change the labels to the states that the old system uses. (the old systems consists of spreadsheets and paper :P We are using 3.0 * UNCONFIRMED --> PRELIMARY * NEW --> DESIGN REVIEW * ASSIGNED --> STR1 * RESOLVED --> STR2 * REOPEN * VERIIFED --> BM...
We are managing our development with Subversion over HTTPS, Bugzilla, and Mediawiki. Some of our developers have expressed an interest in migrating to Trac, so I have to evaluate what the cost of doing so would be. For both the wiki and bugzilla, we would need to either migrate the existing data into Trac or a way to integrate with t...
I am implementing a project on sourceforge. I want to know if any of you have used the tracker tool in sourceforge project hosting site. How does it compare to trac/bugzilla? In case I want/have to use trac, do I have to host it myself? Or can I use some other online hosting? ...
We'd like to start our bug numbers to something other than 1 for a new Bugzilla installation. Is there a way to do this? ...
I'm using Bugzilla 3.2 RC2 (released 11/06/2008) There is some conditional logic deep in there that shows a 2nd dropdown when the 1st has a value of "Resolved". Works great in IE8, Firefox, and Chrome. It doesn't work at all in IE6 or IE7. No Javascript error and nothing happens. I'm wondering if anybody else has run into this iss...
"Walking on water and developing software from a specification are easy if both are frozen." At the top of the Bugzilla page it prints a humorous/insightful quip. I have a list that I have been building up over the years as I encounter good one liners To brighten up my fellow developers days. What source did you use to fill your Bugzill...
As the title says, I'm starting one project right now, and trying to layout the infrastructure for the project (SVN, Email, Bug tracking, Online Forums, etc...) So, Bugzilla or Mantis? ...
The bugzilla (perl-based) system has a feature to login automatically by using a http server environment variable. If you fill in the right ID or username, you are automatically logged in. My server runs Joomla (PHP-based) and has all the information about who is logged in. It runs bugzilla within a sub-frame. So, how can I set this en...
Our development process is highly automated via a raft of bash and php scripts (including subversion hook scripts.) These scripts do a number of things to integrate with our Bugzilla 3.0 installation. But the current integration approach is a bunch of SQL calls which update the bugzilla database directly - which obviously has a number ...
We are in the process of migrating our bug tracking to Bugzilla from a really old version of track and I am running out of Advil. We have a legacy application that has been around for a long time. Mix in the fact that our versioning management has been trough a few iterations it generated a lot of different versions in the wild. To ma...
We are using Bugzilla to collect and monitor our bugs, but up until now we did not use any test case tool. Up until now we were doing only manual testing. Which of the available test cases do you recommend, and is it important that this tool fully integrates with Bugzilla? We are a very small company (less then 10 people) that develop ...
I want to install Bugzilla on my linux server. The installation was successful, but it gives this error: TEST-FAILED Web Server is not executing CGI files How to resolve this? ...
My team and I need to work on a project whose bugs are filed in Bugzilla, using Mylyn. Do you know of any tool or plug-in that provides scrum-inspired burndown charts to Bugzilla or Mylyn? Hopefully, this tool would be free for commercial usage, but we're not closed to commercial tools. Update: 4 hours of research allowed me to find v...
Hi, i am using a single instance of Bugzilla for issue tracking in multiple projects. Some of my projects are restricted to be visible only to a single group of people while other projects have to be ready-only for everybody (even if they do not have a user account in bugzilla). Submitting bugs should always only be possible for authent...
