Getting Started

Hey there! 👋🏻 We're excited to see you.

If you're annoyed with the traditional bug-reporting and debugging process while ensuring your software quality, BetterBugs is for you.

Steps to create your first bug report

Here's how to create a report in five simple steps:

1

Install extension

Visit the official website for BetterBugs. Click the "Add to Chrome FREE" button and download the Chrome Extension for free from the Chrome Web Store. Install and pin the extension to your browser toolbar for quick access.

Alternatively, you can download BetterBugs from here.

2

Create account

To register and create a new account on BetterBugs, click on the BetterBugs extension. It takes you to the login screen of BetterBugs. Now, sign up with your email address and hit "Continue". Confirm your account with the OTP received in your email.

Alternatively, you can sign up with your GitHub or Google account.

You're all set to create your first bug report.

3

Capture a bug

Open the page/address in your browser with the bug. Now, click on the extension and select the capture mode: Screenshot or Screen Record.

For instance, hit the "Crop & Capture" option under Screenshot. Drag and select the screen area you want to capture. This instantly captures a snipped screenshot. Alright! You just captured your first bug. That's how easy it is.

4

Enter bug details

Add a bug title (Required) and other details for the bug. The technical details, such as system info, console logs, network requests, and others, are automatically attached to the report.

5

Upload

You should see "My Workspace" and "My Project" set as defaults for your BetterBugs Workspace and Project names. The report would be uploaded to these by default.

Finally, to upload the report to your BetterBugs account, hit the "Upload Bug Details" button on the bottom right.

This creates a report session and opens the report in a new tab. The report link gets auto-copied to the clipboard, so you can share it with others to access the complete report.

Alternatively, you can click the green "Share" button on the top right and hit "Copy link" for sharing.

You can also add the following to your bug report:

• Custom tags: Up to 10 tags.

• Attachments: Supported file types -> Doc, Excel, PDF, Txt, Image, and Video: Max of 5 files/report.

• Metadata: Custom metadata can be included as key : value pairs.

Technical details are automatically added to the report to aid developers in debugging. BetterBugs automatically attaches the Dev tools information like console logs, network requests, and system info to every bug report you create for your developers to debug with all the required details to reproduce and resolve the issue on a fast track.
