Ticket tips and tricks

  • Links
  • Screenshots!!!
  • Descriptive, but concise title
  • Browser/OS version when applicable
  • Lists over long sentences
  • Ideally one issue/request per ticket
  • Priority, due dates and tags

  • Logging everything as critical*
  • Jamming a lot of requests into one ticket
  • Adding ticket requests in a Word doc as opposed to the actual ticket details
  • Not updating the status/due date/fixer/tester
  • Not adding comment(s)

Critical : The website is down or the issue is high impact (very noticeable) and is blocking content entry or vital functionality.

High : The issue is high impact (very noticeable), is related to other issues, or addresses important functionality.

Medium : Issue is somewhat noticeable and happens all of the time.

Low : The issue occurs infrequently, occurs only on certain devices or browsers, or is not very noticeable.

Waiting on the fixer:

  • Open Ticket is awaiting review. This is the default status for all new tickets.
  • In Progress Lets the creator know the ticket has been acknowledged and is being worked on.
  • Fix Not Confirmed The ticket is back with the fixer. If you are the tester please also add a comment.
  • Ready For Next Release Is commonly used to notify the fixer & creator about pushing to the next environment.
  • Pushed Back The ticket is pushed back to the fixer. If you are the tester please also add a comment.

Waiting on the tester:

  • Ready For Retest Ticket is ready to test. Confirm that you are assigned as the tester before testing.
  • Missing Information More information is required (e.g., content, credentials or further direction).
  • Not Reproducible Cannot reproduce. If you are the fixer please also add a comment.
  • Not An Issue Does not require further action from the fixer and is back with the tester for further review. If you are the fixer please also add a comment.
  • Duplicate issue Leave this ticket to close as there is another ticket for the same issue.

Inactive tickets:

  • Fixed The ticket/issue is fixed. 🙂
  • Closed The ticket is closed. This is similar to fixed, but is used when it turns out that the ticket did not require fixing or was not really an issue.
  • On Hold The ticket has been put on hold. Let’s review in the future.
