Abstract

With the increasing popularity of mobile applications, a light-weighted bug tracking systems has been widely needed. While the high release frequency of the mobile applications requires a rapid bug tracking system for the software maintenance, the needs for users’ feedback can be easily accessed and manipulated for both common users and developers, which motivates us to develop a mobile service for bug tracking, namely Mubug, by combining the natural language processing technique and machine learning technique. Project managers can easily configure and setup bug tracking service without any installation on Mubug. Reporters can submit bug reports with texts, voices or images using their mobile devices. Bug reports can thus be processed and assigned to developers automatically. In this paper, we present the architecture of Mubug and some implememtation details.

创新点

基于微信公众号接口建立一个快速的软件缺陷处理服务。通过引入微信接口、自然语言处理技术和机器学习技术,辅助移动应用软件缺陷的处理流程。基于广泛应用的微信客户端,面向终端普通用户,提供了错误报告提交接口,用户可以通过语音,图片,文字三种方式提交错误报告;相关工作人员可以通过微信端更新和确认错误报告处理状态。
