What bug reporting tool to choose?

Olga Budynska on January 21, 2022

Hey, guys!
I want to try some bug reporting tool like BugHerd, Marker.io or Bird Eats Bug etc.
Are you using any of those and what do you think is the best one?

Sentry.io

+1 Sentry has a really nice and easy to use UI, plus the offer self hosting without the need for subscription.

Bugsnag is a very helpful tool. We also use Birt Eats Bug. And this last sprint we started using Ghost Inspector for UI tests automation so, if there is an introduced bug, the Bugsnag wrapper send us the errors report.

Agree with @joshdvir Sentry is my main go to. Especially as you can link it to your Github and track which commit started the issue.
Now, as I'm moving forward I also would give a try to Honeybadger. This solution looks very interesting for apps that rely on other apps / API / pub-sub services, etc. Tracking issues and identifying their root causes is pretty tedious when working in a distributed environment.

Is Bugzilla still around?

Roal Zanazzi • Jan 22 '22

Unfortunately, yes, at least in some companies.
"Unfortunately" because it's old and absolutely not near the same level of more "modern" tools.

Also any good on-premise tools available?

QAide is quite nice and has a very intuitive compare to JIRA.
Keep an eye on this space to find more similar tools.
