Better than “Wrong”: Write Stronger Bug Reports Bug reports are a communication tool. Saying “The calculation is wrong” doesn’t really help - it shows there’s an issue, but not what exactly is happening. Instead, describe observable facts: ✅ Actual result: The system returns 0. ✅ Expected result: The value should be calculated according to the specification. Or: ✅ Validation allows 12 characters, while the requirement defines a maximum of 10. Focus on: • observable behavior • expected behavior • reference to requirements • clear steps to reproduce Clear and neutral wording helps the team move from problem → solution faster.
