Guidelines – Transient Errors?
1.
Verify that the error is reproducible, i.e. make it happen again
o“Transient errors”
can occur
oThe error may have
been caused by a state or configuration that was unknowingly set … get a “clean”
instance of the bug
oWhen
reproducing the error, try to formulate a “minimal” version of the
system or program with the bug
