Today I am focusing on some important points when reproducing a bug.
As you have known , Some bugs are easy to reproduce and some are not.
If It is possible to reproduce the bug also It is essential to explain
exactly what is required to re-produce It. Usually we list all the steps
as 'Reproduce Steps' within bug description, by including the exact
syntax, file names, sequences that we used to encounter or re-produce the
bug.
If we can believe that the problem will happen with any file.. etc. then
better to mention that but still provide an explicit example that can be
used to do the re-produce.
If It is not possible to re-produce the bug or if we suspect that it may
not be able to re-produce the bug better to gather all the relevant
information as best as we can and that may provide useful information to
the person who has to fix the problem. If we cannot or have not re-produce
the Bug it is important to note this and required to use 'NR'-Not Reproducible in Key words in Bugzilla or mark it as RESOLVED WORKSFORME in Bugzilla.
