Bug Sheet for Bug Testers/Hunters

Information

This thread contains a bug sheet that can be useful when having your game tested, this bug sheet can be used by both bug testers/hunters and developers.

The bug sheet contains the following sections:

  • # - This is the section that numbers all the bugs, there are a total of 1000 rows for bugs.

  • Issue/Bug Description - This is the section where the tester/bug tester provides detailed information about the bug and how the bug occurs.

  • Status - This section contains a drop-down list that has 6 different values to choose from, these will be described in more detail further into this thread.

  • Where was the bug found - The testers/bug hunters provide the location in which they have found the bug, it could be somewhere on the map, it could be a model and it could even be the developer console.

  • Proof of the bug - This is the section where the tester/bug hunter provides screenshot proof of the bug, it can also be used to provide the information that the developer console displays.

  • Type of bug - The testers/bug hunters use this section to provide the type of bug that they encountered, whether it is a script bug, model bug, or UI bug or anything else.

Status

  • Low - This value is chosen if the risk that the bug brings is relatively low, for example, a slight miss-placement would be considered low.

  • Medium - This value is chosen if the risk that the bug brings, somewhat affects the gameplay, for example, a small script that doesn’t work would be considered medium.

  • High - This value is chosen if the risk that the bug brings, affects the game pretty badly and could affect the gameplay, for example, a script that is supposed to do something to the player doesn’t do anything.

  • Critical - This value is chosen if the risk that the bug brings, is extremely important and makes the game unplayable, for example, a script that doesn’t let the play proceed to the next part of the game.

  • Suggestion - This value would be used when the tester/bug hunter would like to give their ideas on what the developers could add to the game.

  • Solved - This value would only be used by developers when the bug/issue that occurred is solved.
