Bug report

It is important that you are clear on how to write a bug report because bugs happen! If you find a bug but cannot log it clearly for the person fixing it or if the bug is not reproducible, the bug will not be fixed, and your product experience will not improve. The developer must be able to visualize the situation, or else they will be unable to fix the bug.
