What's the best way to report IDE errors?

Open jmfayard opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hello

recently the kotest plugin has filled my IDE with errors. That's life, but my question is how to report them best? Because for a Jetbrains or Google plugin, this goes straight to their issue tracker, where they put the relevant data in a way that makes sense. If I were to just copy/paste that into an issue, that would feel like spamming :P

When reporting something, I include all I have:

  • stacktrace
  • what version (plugin, IntelliJ)
  • how to reproduce (bullet point list, if I have concrete steps)
  • all other things I noticed

For example: https://github.com/kotest/kotest-intellij-plugin/issues/168

If you don't report the same/similar exception multiple times, I would assume nobody will consider that spamming 😄 With IntelliJ stacktraces look closely because one issue can have a near infinite amount of different stacktraces
