Challenge Overview
Welcome to [Bug Bounty] - Lightspeed PAY PER BUG FIX Challenge #1! The goal of this challenge is to fix a number of reported open bugs in our Gitlab project.
Bug Bounty is a program that will pay community members to fix bugs reported in previous challenges or by other members. This code fix challenge will have member assign themselves to an issue. The bugs will be very small fast fixes that shouldn't take more than a few hours to fix.
Challenge Scope
This challenge will have a long time frame which is different than the usual code challenge.
For this challenge, you will assign a bug that has corresponding dollar amount and labeled "Bug Bounty" to yourself from our current queue.
However you should not really assign the issue to yourself, instead you should just comment on the issue saying you're working on it, the 1st member to comment on an issue is considered the assignee. You should also follow the rules below:
- Each member may only assign one issue to themselves at a time. Assign, work, create a merge request toward the 30053223-bugdash branch and comment in the issue, and look for the next issue.
- If a member is no longer working on an issue they should delete the assignment comment from the issue.
- If a member commented that they are working on the issue and the issue isn't closed in two days, we will remove the comment so other members can work on the issue.
We assigned prize for each open bugs which are waiting for be fixed. The competitor can select any open bug to work on. Once you have the fixed the bug, please submit your code and the corresponding bug number to OR, we will review it and pay you the bug prize though Jira privately.
The bug list will be updated frequently, new bugs will be shown and old bugs may be fixed by the other competitors, so keep watching the bug list.
If you are the assignee of an issue and found out it's already fixed, you can report in your comment saying the issue can be closed and you'll also be paid $10 for verifying the fix.
