| contents | High-quality software products rely on both well-written source code and timely detection and thorough reporting of bugs. However, some programmers view bug reports as negative assessments of their work, leading them to withhold reporting bugs, thereby detrimentally impacting projects. Through a survey of 102 programmers, we discovered that only a third of them perceive the quantity of bugs found and rectified in a repository as indicative of higher quality. This finding substantiates the notion that programmers often misinterpret the significance of testing and bug reporting. |
