为提高TianoCore UEFI固件开发社区的Bug分类和解决效率,通过分析Bug库数据并添加新字段到现有模板,优化GitHub Issues中的Bug报告模板。
📝 Abstract
We propose enhancing the bug report templates in the GitHub Issues issue tracking system used by the TianoCore open-source community with the aim of improving the bug triage and resolution process. We analyze the bug repository data and find patterns of information that are useful for bug triage and fixing. However, some of them are only occasionally included in the free-form text of bug reports. Therefore, we propose adding a few new fields to the existing TianoCore bug report template. In this study, we focus on the key TianoCore project, EDK II, which constitutes the core of the UEFI firmware across various firmware vendors and original equipment manufacturers. This study is currently a work-in-progress. So far, we have interviewed a few developers to obtain their feedback and adjust the proposed approach. We are planning more interviews with the TianoCore community to conduct A/B tests and validate our approach to achieve effective and efficient bug triage and resolution.
