PHP Bug Trackers

Post by Sphenn »

Well, I have a question for all of you.

Do any of you have any preferences to using bug trackers for projects? I have been looking around, but haven't picked one so far. I've taken a look at Mantis, and it's okay, but I want to try other ones first. If you have any suggestions, please post them here. :D

Thanks,

Sphenn

professionally, I've only used Microsoft RAID, which is an internal bug tracking system they have.. I've looked at a few others, haven't really seen any I like though.. :?

Yeah, it's the same problem with me. It's for a project of SF, but I really hate the trackers they provide. I've tried BugZilla, but it won't install on the servers, and plus, it's in Perl 8O

I use Mantis for some projects and have been pretty pleased with it so far.

I also use RequestTracker (http://bestpractical.com/rt/) for some other ones, although it's more of a trouble ticket app than a pure bug tracker. And it's written in Perl (although if you're just _using_ an application, who cares what it's written in, right?)

Another product I really want to start trying is Trac (http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/). "Trac is a minimalistic web-based software project management and bug/issue tracking system. It provides an interface to revision control systems (Subversion), an integrated Wiki and convenient report facilities." And it's written in Python.

I was searching for PHP bug trackers a while back

For what it is worth, I ended up going with Scarab, which is java based but has suited my needs rather well.
