Bug Reporting Software

Anon

I have been searching for like an hour for some half decent bug reporting software out there. Can someone please give me a url to a good piece of bug reporting software I do I have to write one by myself?

Anon

I've done quite a research on this topic. I needed something powerfull enought to handle our projects, but simple enought to keep the additional overhead for the developers within the limits.

So my favorite is: Mantis
http://mantisbt.sourceforge.net/mantis.php3

We are using it for more than a month a have very good expirience. See what the author says about his product:

Mantis is a php/MySQL/web based bugtracking system. The software resides on a webserver while any web browser should be able to function as a client. It is released under the terms of the GNU GPL.

Mantis is free to use and modify. It is free to distribute as long as you abide by the distribution terms of the GNU GPL.

I also have the URLs of couple more systems. If you are interested, I could place the here.

Have fun

Great,

Except this piece of software appears to have a problem when trying to log in. Could you please post the other url's so I can try some other pieces of software.

Anon

There should be a new version of Mantis this Sunday.

I have avaluated most of others and found only Mantis suitable enought for us.

This list is sorted by the way I liked them:

My 2nd favorite: Double Choco Latte - http://dcl.sourceforge.net/
Too complex for bug tracking only.

Keystone - http://keystone.whitepj.net/
Too complex for bug tracking only.

TUTOS - http://www.tutos.org/homepage/index.html

ProManager - http://promanager.dyndns.org/

phpHelpdesk - http://phphelpdesk.sourceforge.net/

RT: Request Tracker - http://www.fsck.com/projects/rt/

JitterBug - http://samba.anu.edu.au/cgi-bin/jitterbug

Bugzilla - http://www.mozilla.org/projects/bugzilla/

Information Resource Manager - http://sourceforge.net/projects/irm/

Please note, that not all of them are php.

Here is also a list with other BT and QA systems: http://linas.org/linux/pm.html

Have fun,

Hey Stoyan thanks a lot man I got the software up today I had to rewrite about 5 pages in it so it worked on w2k servers but it works great. Thanks for all the help man.

Anon

I am happy, I could help.

Please submit these changes to the author of Mantis, so he could eventually include them in the official release.
