Bug tracking software

Hello friends,

I am searching for a bug tracking software of some kind. We have been using PR-Tracker for a few years. But it does no longer fit our needs. And is somewhat clunky to use. (Version 4.5 that is. I have not used any never).

So I am somewhat curious to hear what people are using and why. Preferably packages that run on Windoze platform, since that is what we use in our department.

What we need: Shared database with support for multiple users. Windoze supported host/client Possibility to create and assign problems to developers. Posibility to create various reports from the database.

Does anybody have anything they can recommend? Cheap/free would be nice, but commercial packages also has our interest.

Thanking you all in advance.

Best regards Henrik

How well does Bugzilla answer these requirements?

I found Gnatsweb a good 90:10 solution - 90% of the features for 10% of the installation effort :)

We use StarTeam. It works rather well (spread across about 100 engineers and a similar number of QA staff).

I've started using Trac on a couple of projects. It integrates issue and milestone tracking with a wiki, and repository browser. A little bit nicer than getting separate products working together (imagine cross-linking tickets, revisions, and documents).

I think it can run on Windows (Python based).

Hi Henrik,

check this:

It uses MySQL and Apache servers, it is quiet easy to setup everything under windows. Can be also integrated with version control system (cvs, subversion).

Has anyone tried FogBugz from Fog Creek software. This is Joel Spolsky's company. His "Joel on Software" stuff is always excellent.

Yet another reason for me to use Subversion! It must nearly be Christmas!

This kind of integration is one of its major strong points, yes; and as it continues to gain users, extensions will also proliferate. It's the Participation Age, baby...

Well Tom I am impressed. I couldn't get scmbug to install on freebsd so I eventually gave up. I would love to integrate them though. Which OS do you use? Can you let me in on how you fugured it out? Thanks for any help.

Are you replying to me? I haven't installed anything yet so I have nothing that I can let you in on. I will be using Fedora Core 5 so I'll let you know if it proves to be too tricky.

The other solution I posted will work on any UNIX-based O/S.
