Abstract

Testing plays one of the most significant roles in application life cycle
management testing has got most significant place. Defects can occur at
different phases like unit testing, system testing, clients usage etc. These defects
need to be logged and tracked effectively to meet customers requirement and
deadlines. This project automates the entire Defect Tracking and Monitoring
since its injection time, and is broadly divided into three modules, namely, the
Admin Module, the Defect Tracking Module and the Report Module.

The Admin Module takes care of defects administration and provides the
following interfaces to manage:

Severities
Users
Projects
Status
Work flow

The Bug Tracking Module allows the users to log the defects during different
phases of the application life cycle which are assigned to the respective persons
by the managers. Defects will be monitored from the Open status till the Closed
status. Various interfaces are provided to effectively manage the said defects.

Various MIS reports are provided to view in different user defined formats. eg,
HTML, PDF etc., which is handled in the Report Module.
 SYNOPSIS

1.Title Of The Project:

Bug Tracking System.

2.Objective:

Introduction:

Testing has got most significant place in application life cycle management.
Accurately tracking software defects and monitoring them is a challenge for
project managers. These defects need to be logged and tracked effectively to
meet the clients requirements and deadlines.

Organizations track software defects via a defect report. The name and
information included on the report varies from organization to organization
depending on organizations software process and project type. For example,
one organization may use two reports, one to record defects and the other to
track changes resulting from defects and enhancements.

Because these reports contain inconsistent information, using the data to collect
defect metrics may lead to confusion and incorrect interpretation of the data.
Software engineers can use defect information to identify error-prone modules,
identify the relationship between defects, and track defect status throughout the
software lifecycle. This inconsistent information may lead to misinterpretations of
project status.

Defect tracking system continues to evolve to meet the requirements of

commercial industry. Defect tracking and reporting is one of the most important
responsibilities of a tester.

Software engineers rely on accurate defect information so that they can fix it
properly. Managers rely on accurate and complete defect information to
understand the software and testing backlogs of the project and to visualize the
quality of the system under test.

3.Input Of The Project:

Following Are The Inputs Of The Project:

Administrator provides newly appointed employees unique id, designation,

groupid etc.
Tester fixes the defects in modules occurred with unique defectId after
testing. The defects will be transferred to particular employee with
efficient information working in the project.
The project Manager has authority to modify (edit) pages within the
system..

4.Output Of The Project:

Following Are The Outputs Of The Project:

A final step in the system performance, definition describing the outputs

required by the client.

Specifying exactly what the output will look like leads to an estimate of the
computer storage requirements that form the basis for the file design to be
undertaken in the design phase of the cycle.

5.Process Logic:

This Project Contains 3 Modules.

 1.Admin Module.
2.Bugt Tracking Module.
3.Report Module.

Admin :

The Admin Module takes care of defects administration and provides

the following interfaces to manage:

o Severities
o Users
o Projects
o Status
o Work flow

Bug Tracking:

The Bug Tracking Module allows the users to log the defects during
different phases of the application life cycle which are assigned to the
respective persons by the managers. Defects will be monitored from
the Open status till the Closed status. Various interfaces are provided
to effectively manage the said defect.

Report :

Various MIS reports are provided to view in different user defined

formats. eg, HTML, PDF etc., which is handled in the Report
Module.
