RULES TO FIND BUGS

We need you to hunt for the issues and report these issues to Gitlab, to get access to the project, post in the challenge forums. Gitlab Repo link is provided in forums.

The issue you report should have the following :

  1. Clear title for the issue

  2. Provide a detailed description with screenshots/ video with steps to reproduce the issue. Any bugs without a screenshot or video are likely to be rejected

  3. If you have a technical explanation, then you can provide more details with links to the code in the gitlab repo that is causing the problem.

  4. Assign it a priority level you think fits:

    1. P1 - Blocker - This bug prevents anyone from using the app. No workaround exists. E.g. app crashes, app freezes etc.

    2. P2 - Critical - This bug prevents some users from using the app for some features/ on some browsers. No workaround exists.

    3. P3 - Major - This bug prevents some users from using the app, but they can work around the issue (ie: use a nav to get back home, submit the form with the enter key when the submit button is off screen, etc)

    4. P4 - Minor - This is an annoyance, but won’t prevent the target market from using the app.

Please note:

  1. Assigning what you think is the severity helps the admin/co-pilot.  It is up to them to determine their actual severity, so it may be reassigned at their discretion before opening the bug for the bug bash.

  2. If you have doubt about specific feature/button not working please post in forums for clarifications.

  3. We are mainly looking for issues related to style, logic, flow, and functionality. Spelling mistakes issues are considered trivial.

  4. We will not pay for duplicate bugs. We will accept the first submitted bug, based on time in GitLab. Please do not submit slight differences to try and get accepted. This will get you banned.

  5. The member that report the highest number of issues of priority (Blocker/Critical/Major - weighted average - 10/8/5) will win the first place prize.

  6. There will be no appeals phase. The decision of PM/co-pilot for validity and severity of each filled issue will be final.

ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS

In addition to the first place prize, we will be awarding the following prize money to other competitors

Blocker/ Critical/ Major - $6

Minor/ Duplicating existing issue on new platform, browser or browser mode combination/ Cosmetic/ Trivial - $2

The additional prizes will be up to $150 for 2nd position, $100 for 3rd position and $75 for 4th and $50 for 5th position.
 
We will award $6 for each unique Blocker/ Critical bugs. Same bug/ issue on different platforms/ browsers will not qualify under this.
Other than Blocker/ Critical bugs, No prizes will be awarded beyond the 5th position for any bugs.
