  • Issues must include clear descriptions, test cases and steps to reproduce and expected vs. actual results in order to be counted.
  • Pay attentions to issue granularity, for example: if you find 5 typos on UI and report them as 5 different issues, only one will be considered valid.
  • First competitor to find an issue gets credit, duplicates will not be counted.
  • Reviewers will accept, reject or mark the issues as duplicate.

  • Steps to reproduce, including any needed information
  • Screen shots (if applicable)
  • Expected results after the bug is fixed
  • Current results, before the bug is fixed
  • Browser version

 Important Notice:

  • If you do not properly document your bug reports, they will likely be rejected due to lack of information or documentation. Also, make sure your bug reports are reasonably general.
  • If you submit the same bug that is seen in multiple screens, for instance, you will likely only get credit for the original bug report. The others will all be closed as duplicates.

Tips

Some of the tips helpful for the contest are:

  • Submitting what is obviously the same issue multiple times with small variations will only annoy the reviewer that has to sort through all the issues and will only count as one issue anyway. If it's less obvious if it is the same issue or not, use your best judgment and the reviewers will do the same.
  • Put an eye on the issues being submitted by other members to minimize the time you may be spending on duplicate efforts. Knowing what has already been reported will allow you to better focus your time on finding yet undiscovered issues.
  • Double check your steps to reproduce and test cases to make sure they are clear. Make sure your steps include creation of any necessary data.
