Hey guys,
Today I want to give a clear picture on how to write a bug report in game testing. I know everyone is passionate about playing games, but dunno how to write a bug report if you find a bug in the game.
Writing a Game Bug Report
Title: Give a good title where the developer can easily understand where the bug is present.
Platform: Mention in which Operating System and in which device the bug is produced.
Actual Result: Give a step by step detail description about where the bug is produced. Check each and every detail of the game(background music, characters overlapping, Incorrect score, etc).
Expected Result: Tell the developer about what the actual result i.e; the way the developer wants the game to be.
The severity of the bug: Give under which category the bug will fall into like high, low, medium severity.
Sample Bug Report
Here, I am going to write a bug report which I have observed in the popular game Candy Crush Saga, So you guys can clearly understand.
Title: In the Candy Crush game regarding the number of lives.
Platform: I have this bug in the Android Operating System in Samsung mobile device.
Actual Result: After the user ends with all the lives, the game should not produce any lives. But in the game, we will see the lives have been over and show 0 but whenever we open and try to play any level even if the game lives shows 0.
Expected Result: The expected result is whenever the user has completed with all the 5 lives and shows 0, the user should not be able to play any level in the game.
The severity of the bug: According to the bug I observed, I can say the severity of the bug is high.
This is the sample bug report I have written for your reference. Hope, you guys had a basic knowledge about how to write a game bug report.
