Bug Filing Guidelines

  • Created by Mike Swingler, last modified by Brian Beck on Jan 18, 2013

Guidelines

  • Please do a quick search of the bug database to see if your issue has already been filed
  • You must include a test case, or clearly enumerated steps to setup and reproduce the failure
    • We can't fix a problem we can't reproduce
  • If there are any crash logs, spin traces, or gdb stack output, please also attach them to the bug
  • If you are reporting a graphical UI issue, screen shots are very helpful
  • Include any version information about the build, as well as the version of Mac OS X you encountered the problem on
  • Use the form below if you are new to filing bugs or are uncertain of what information to attach

Priorities

Blocker: Blocks development or testing work, production can not run
Critical: Crashes, loss of data, severe memory leaks, major specification incompatibility
Major: Major loss of functionality, minor specification incompatibility, major behavioral incompatibility
Minor: Minor loss of functionality, minor behavioral incompatibility
Trivial: Cosmetic problems like misspelled words or misaligned text

Tags
