    This document summarizes and compares a bug tracking system and concurrent version system (CVS). It notes that a bug tracking system uses a database to record facts about known bugs, including details about the bug. It also supports tracking the lifecycle of a bug through different statuses. CVS uses a repository to store revision history and allows multiple developers to collaborate on files. Features include repositories to store history and working copies for making changes. The document provides examples of bug tracking systems and notes limitations of CVS, such as only showing conflicts without resolution procedures.

    Bug Tracking System Vs SVN/CVS

    Presented by
    Sneha Mudumba

    Bug tracking system


    It is a software application that is designed for quality assurance and helps the programmers to keep track of reported software bugs in their work. It is a sort of issue tracking system. The major component of bug tracking system is a database that records facts about known bugs.

    Concurrent version system


    It is an open source version control system that keeps track of all changes in a set of files, typically the implementation of a software project and it allows several developers to collaborate. The major components in CVS is a repository which is master copy where CVS stores a full revision history.

    Features of bug tracking system


    The major component of bug tracking system is a database that records facts about known bugs.Facts may be the time of the bug, the nature of the bug, the behavior and details on what produced a bug. Typical bug tracking system supports the concept of lifecycle for a bug which is tracked through status assigned to the bug.

    Features of CVS.
    The key terms of CVS are: Repository:The master copy where CVs stores the revision History. Working Copy:The copy in which actual changes are made. Typical CVS system supports several programmers to work concurrently.The server will accept the changes made to the most recent version of file.Developers are therefore expected to keep their working copy up to date by incorporating other peoples changes.

    Limitations of CVS
    1. CVS only shows what the conflicts are but does not give a procedure to solve it 2. Limited support for Unicode text file and non -ASCII filenames.

    Examples:
    Mantis and TRAC:Mantis is an example of web based bug tracking system.It is written in PHP and requires a SQL database Server.It is a lightweight ,simple bug tracking system. TRAC matches to mantis.

    Conclusion
    So the Bug tracking system and the Concurrent version system both enable the programmers to keep track of the bugs by using different mechanisms and there by enable the programmers to resolve the errors in a easy way
