Writing a bug report sounds simple—until your developer messages back with “I can’t reproduce this,”  or “It works on my machine” or worse, “Another fantom bug” for the third time. If you’ve ever felt the frustration of a bug being ignored, misunderstood, or brushed aside, this course is for you.

In “How to Write Bug Reports That Don’t Suck,” you’ll learn how to craft clear, actionable, and high-quality bug reports that actually help get issues resolved faster. We’ll walk through the essential components of a strong bug report, from titles and reproduction steps to environment details and attachments. You’ll also see real examples of both bad and great bug reports, and learn how to improve your own.

Whether you’re a beginner just starting out in QA or a developer, product manager, or anyone who needs to report bugs effectively, this course will help you write reports that are concise, informative, and respected by developers.

No prior experience is necessary. The goal is to raise the bar for communication between testers and devs—and to save everyone time in the process.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to write bug reports that make sense, get attention, and lead to faster fixes.
