Fixing Bugs

The process for fixing bugs are as follows:

• Check the current Backlog and select a bug to fix
• Before developing, check that the ticket includes the following information:
• The scope of the issue including platforms affected
• The steps to reproduce. Sometimes bugs are opened that are not Wails issues and the onus is on the reporter to prove that it is a Wails issue with a minimal reproducible example
• The output of wails doctor
• If the ticket does not include this information, feel free to request the information from the person who opened the ticket.
• Comment on the ticket stating you wish to develop a fix
• Clone the repository and create a branch with the format bugfix/<ticket_number>_<ticket_title>
• Once the fix is ready for testing, create a draft PR. Please ensure the PR description has the test scenarios and test cases listed with checkmarks, so that others can know what still needs to be tested.
• Once all the testing is completed, please update the status of the PR from draft and leave a message.

note

There is nothing stopping you from opening a ticket and working on it yourself, but please be aware that all bugfixes should be discussed as the approach may have unintended side effects.

Any PRs opened without a corresponding ticket may be rejected.
