• In blockchain QA, how do you report bugs respectfully so devs don’t feel blamed?

    When I started as a blockchain tester, I was honestly scared to report bugs. Every message felt like I might be blaming a developer. But QA isn’t about pointing fingers — it’s about protecting users. Still, the tone matters.

    What’s your go-to way to write bug reports that are respectful, clear, and taken seriously, without making anyone defensive or overwhelmed?

    I start with gratitude something like Thanks for the feature, I noticed something odd during tests… Then I follow a pattern: steps → result → logs → expected. One thing I learned that our tone helps in building trust more effectively than the title we use.

    I once shared a coverage summary with audit team not code, just intent. They added extra cases based on it and thanked me later. QA is like a translator between dev and audit worlds.

    Let me share my trick. For bug reporting, I use screenshots, console logs, and transaction hashes. When you give proof no one can argue on it. After I started attaching data, instead of clash incidences now people appreciate with "Good catch"

    I mention risk instead of blame — “may cause fund lock if loop breaks.” Suddenly the discussion becomes about protection, not fault. It changes everything about team dynamics.
