Feedback on bug reporting.

Posted: 03-04-2006, 04:41 PM
OK, having fun testing 5308, and I'm finding and reporting bugs ok now.
However, what happens after I've uploaded the bug report to MS? Should I be
receiving an email acknowledgement? How do I see the status of bugs that I'm
reporting? What's the process?

Your bugs should appear on http://connect.microsoft.com in short a while in
the Feedback section, sometimes issues might occurr and you won't appear
until 24 hours later. (This is for technical testers in Technical Beta
Program).

E-mails as of Connect 1.1 were starting to be distributed to testers
notifying them of the status of their Reports.

OK, thanks. Only problem is that I'm not on the technical beta, I have Vista
through my MSDN subscription. I don't see anything on my Connect page that
suggests how I get feedback.

I have the same problem.
I got vista from MSDN at work. I allready have to ask the person who's
managing the MSDN account for the download. Would be intresting to have the
vista added to my connect account.

For non-technical beta testers, there isn't anyway to track the bug that you
have submitted. Howevr, do keep them posted, since MS does read and work on
every bug report that they receive.

That's at least good to know. However (if you're listening MS) it would be
nice to at least get confirmation that you have received the bug report if
nothing else.
