What is an Extended Bug Report?

Free-form comments from reporters can be time-consuming to read through when triaging bugs. The Extended Bug Report standardizes all of your bug reports with additional fields that are commonly used by QA and technical beta testers: steps to reproduce the bug, actual results, and expected results.

2888 — In your dashboard, your testers' responses to the additional fields are listed under their description of the bug.

If enabled, the Extended Bug Report adds a second step to the bug reporting flow that your testers experience in your app.

6534 — The Extended Bug Report includes additional fields for your testers to complete when sending reports.

Setting the Extended Bug Report Mode

By default, the Extended Bug Report mode is disabled. When enabling the Extended Bug Report, you can set whether the additional fields are required or optional.

BugReporting.setExtendedBugReportMode(
	 BugReporting.extendedBugReportMode.enabledWithRequiredFields
);

Here are the possible modes you can set Extended Bug Reports to:

BugReporting.extendedBugReportMode.disabled
BugReporting.extendedBugReportMode.enabledWithRequiredFields
BugReporting.extendedBugReportMode.enabledWithOptionalFields
