BetterBugs Integration with Azure DevOps Boards

Here’s how to configure and integrate BetterBugs with Azure DevOps Boards:

  1. Download and install the BetterBugs extension.

  2. Capture the bug using the Screen Capture, Video Recording, or Rewind feature.

  3. Add a title (Required) and other details about the bug.

  4. Open the "Send to your tools" dropdown from the top right corner of the report screen.

  5. Click on "Connect Azure Boards" and authorize BetterBugs for Azure.

  6. Below the "Send to your tools" dropdown, make the selections as per your preference for BetterBugs Workspace and Project: Dropdown 1: User's Workspace (default: BetterBugs Workspace Name) Dropdown 2: User's Project (default: BetterBugs Project Name)

Important Note: The integration will happen to the specific project you selected within BetterBugs. This means that if you have multiple projects, you'll need to set up separate integrations for each one.

  1. Click again on the "Send to your tools" dropdown.

  2. Click "Azure Work Item". This fetches the report template for "Your Azure Boards task info". Add details like Organization, Project, Type, and others.

  3. Hit the "Upload Bug" button.

This creates a new Azure Work Item and opens up in a new tab. You’ll find the work item with all the details that you added and a link to the complete bug report with the devtools info. Using the link, you can easily navigate to the BetterBugs dashboard to access the complete report with all the info that you just captured.

The integration is complete and you’ve successfully shared the bug report to your Azure project.

Here's how to send your existing BetterBugs report to Azure Boards:

  1. Log in to your BetterBugs account.

  2. Select the project (within BetterBugs) that’s integrated with Azure Boards.

  3. Open the report you want to share.

  4. Click "Send to your tools" from the top menu and select "Azure Work Item" from the "Select" dropdown.

  5. This fetches the report template for "Your Azure Boards task info". Add the necessary project details. (Note: You can also update any details already available in the bug report.)

  6. Click the "Upload Bug" button.

A new tab with the created Azure Work Item opens up posting it to the Azure project with all the details and a link to the complete bug report.
