======  HOWTO: Make a Bug Report ======
 
 If you found a Bug in the current Electure-Portal or if you think there is an important feature missing, here is a guide which should help you understand how to make a good Bug Report. There are only a few steps that need to be done in order to make a Bug report:

  * Creating a User-Account in the Bug Tracker
  * Logging in to the Bug-Tracker
  * Creating a Bug Report

Before entering a Bug report, please first read through the [[tag:faq|Frequently asked Questions]] and existing bug reports. Read it all very carefully. Developers get annoyed by duplicate Bug reports.
=====  Creating a User-Account in the Bug-Tracker =====
 
First of all, you need to create an Account in the [[http://electures.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/bugs/my_view_page.php|Bug Tracker]].
The following images illustrate the process of registering at the Bug Tracker:

After [[http://electures.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/bugs/my_view_page.php|logging in with your username and password]] , you will see all Bug reports that are currently open.

===== Creating a Bug Report =====

 Before creating a new Bug report, make sure that the problem or missing feature you want to report is not already reported. So please look carefully through existing Bug reports and the [[electures-portal:dokumentation:faq|Frequently asked Questions]].

To create a Bug report click on Report Issue. You will be shown the form above. Select Electures-Portal as Project and click on Select Project.

Then fill in all the details that are necessary to understand your Bug report.
 First select a category: Choose //Bug// for errors you found. Select //Improvement// for anything that should be done better that is neither an error, nor a new feature. Select //New Feature// for any new features you want to see in new versions of the portal. Task should not be used by end-users. Please fill in all other fields very carefully, and choose //Summary// and //Description// wisely. Then click on //Submit// Report.
