A good defect report might have following sections.
  • HeadlineOne
    line description of the defect. Remember, A good
    headline will always be clear, related to the
    defect and give some hints on how critical
    defect could be.

  • ProductIn
    most cases defect tracking system is used for more than one product. So
    specifying appropriate product and version is very important.

  • ComponentProducts
    are normally very complex, and can be divided into components.
    A defect report containing proper
    information about component can help
    managers in assigning it to appropriate person.

  • Defect TypeDefect
    type could be, functionality, specification, regression, UI etc.
    This classification can be used to analyze how
    defects are distributed in the system.


  • PriorityPriority is the impact
    of defect on business. This field gives an
    indication of the impact of this defect on
    business. In some organizations, testers do not specify priority,
    It is defined my manager or triage team
    members. 

  • SeveritySeverity
    is the impact of the defect on the
    product. For example if you hit five keys
    together and your product crashes, it is a
    very severe defect. But its  priority is
    probably low because normally people might
    not hit five keys together. Now consider
    that the  company logo is not proper on
    the splash screen. From severity point of view
    it is not severe as it is not crashing
    application or blocking user from using the
    application. However, it is hig priority as it is
    affecting organization's image.


  • EnvironmentProper information about your
    test execution environment should be present. For example, information
    about platform, databases, run times everything should be included in
    your defect report. This information helps development team in
    reproducing the defects.

  • StepsAll
    the steps should be specified clearly. You should not assume that
    programmer will understand this. Programmer might be
    looking at your defect report when are
    not  around to explain. Your steps should be clear enough
    for a novice user to follow and reproduce
    or verify the defect .

  • AttachmentsWhatever
    additional information is needed for the
    defect, should also be attached. This
    additional information could be logs generated
    by system, application etc. It could be screen
    shots or any other thing that might help
    developers in reproducing the defects.

  • Comments
    If
    you have any additional comments on the defect, you should specify it
    clearly. For example if you observe/think that defect is related to some
    other defects filed in the same component with little variation. You
    should specify that.
