I made a mockup for those interested. Keep in mind the design may change, but you get the general idea.

Is this for phpBB only or are you thinking (yesyesyes) for a generic bug tracker that happens to run in phpBB? :)

Terrific!

Some first thoughts...

So in terms of functionality - would it include a bug reporting system as well?

Practically, could it transform a forum into a bug reporting portal? When creating a topic, you get a predefined form to fill out, as designed by the admin.

The ability to perhaps query certain data from users - let's say operating system, or browser, software versions,... (as variables) which then get stored in the bug tracker and could be used to later search the bugs.

Bug status (submitted, assigned, completed, won't do, can't reproduce),... with visual feedback (icons) that are visible in viewforum?

Bug severity (minor, major, trivial, cosmetic)

When fixed, assign a version of the software that fixes it (so you can automagically create change logs)...

Sign me up for testing :)

The extension will include a bug, feature and issue tracker.

No, this will be it's own standalone package.

Yes, users with the appropriate permissions will be able to set a bug status.

Sounds great! Looking forward to it!

So will you (or a team) be developing packages alongside eachother or will it be a project in stages? Tracker first, then reporter, then...

I haven't forgot about this. I'm made some great headway lately but it is still largely undeveloped. I'll have a (non-functional) GitHub repository up at some point within the next day or so.

That looks super promising!

So I'm guessing the filter is for the status?

Or do you have separate filtering and status in mind?

Like for example filter could be for certain (custom?) categories while you can also sort by status?

The filtering is for the status. There are 3 status hard-coded into the extension - "All tickets", "All open tickets", "All closed tickets". The rest will be controlled through the database by means of status_id and tracker_id - you can have different status for each tracker. It's also possible (though not immediately apparent in the screenshot) to assign tickets to groups or users but not both.

Nice!

I get it. Very flexible.

Can you assign a bug to several trackers?

Say you have a tracker for phpBB 3.1 and one for 3.2, and you file a bug that applies to both?

No, currently it is not possible to assign a ticket to different projects. It may be something I look into as I get further into development.
