Description Jiri Kovalsky 2015-08-28 18:15:41 UTC
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201508280002)
Java: 1.8.0_51; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.51-b03
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_51-b16
System: Linux version 3.13.0-37-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; cs_CZ (nb)

Description:
============
It would be good to have three more fields in the "Report a New Task" editor. To force reporter to specify how often the issue occurs please add a drop down menu "Reproducibility:" with 4 values:

   * Happens every time
   * Happens sometimes but not always
   * I haven't tried to reproduce it
   * I tried but I couldn't reproduce it

Selecting reproducibility will be mandatory.

In addition to that please add new text areas called: "Steps to reproduce:" and "Expected result:". Finally, "Description:" rename to "Actual result:". Only "Actual result:" and "Summary:" fields must be non-empty in order to enable "Submit Task" button.
Comment 1 Tomas Stupka 2016-01-15 14:33:39 UTC
"Reproducibility" and "Steps to Reproduce" makes sense only when reporting defects.

Should not be available to enhancements or tasks.
Comment 2 Jiri Kovalsky 2016-01-15 16:31:58 UTC
Agreed.
