Bug Until Reproduced

Goal

Create a reliable and minimal reproduction of a software bug through iterative testing and analysis

How to Run

Iterate through test creation and execution until a bug can be consistently reproduced

1. 01

   Identify the Bug

   Provide detailed information about the bug, including symptoms, error messages, and affected components

2. 02

   Run Check Command

   Execute 'repro test' to attempt to reproduce the bug with existing tests

3. 03

   Inspect Results

   Analyze test output and system behavior to determine if the bug was reproduced

4. 04

   Refine Tests

   Modify or create new test cases based on analysis to improve reproduction chances

5. 05

   Repeat Until Exit

   Continue the loop until the exit condition is met: 'Reproduction exists'

Workflow Steps

1. 01

   Bug Identification

   Analyze user-provided bug description and context to understand the problem space

2. 02

   Context Gathering

   Collect relevant logs, error messages, recent changes, and environmental factors that may influence the bug

3. 03

   Test Case Creation

   Develop initial test scenarios aimed at triggering the described bug behavior

4. 04

   Check Execution

   Run the 'repro test' command with created test cases to observe system behavior

5. 05

   Result Inspection

   Examine test output, logs, and system state to determine if the bug was successfully reproduced

6. 06

   Analysis and Refinement

   If not reproduced, analyze failures and refine test cases to better target the bug conditions

7. 07

   Iteration Decision

   Decide whether to continue iterating or terminate based on iteration count and exit condition

Start the "Bug Until Reproduced" loop.

Goal: Create a reliable and minimal reproduction of a software bug through iterative testing and analysis
Max iterations: 10
Between iterations run: repro test
Exit when: Reproduction exists


Start the 'Bug Until Reproduced' loop by providing a detailed bug description including error messages, expected vs actual behavior, and any relevant context such as recent code changes or specific conditions that trigger the issue.

Self-pace this loop. After each iteration, run `repro test` and evaluate the output, and only continue if the exit condition is not met (Reproduction exists). Stop when the exit condition passes or 10 iterations are reached. Give a short status update each pass.
