Bug Report Template for Asana (2026)
Asana provides a clean task management interface that works well for bug tracking when configured with custom fields, task templates, and intake forms. This template sets up a structured bug management system using Asana-native features.
Create a dedicated Bug Tracker project in Asana with sections for each stage of the bug lifecycle.
Template sections
5 sections covering the complete bug report workflow.
Project Setup
Create a Bug Tracker project with sections: New, Triaged, In Progress, Verification, Closed, and Won't Fix. Add custom fields: Severity (dropdown: Blocker/Critical/Major/Minor), Environment (dropdown: Production/Staging/Development), Browser (text), and Regression (checkbox).
Bug Intake Form
Create an Asana Form for bug submissions. Include fields: Summary (short text), Steps to Reproduce (long text), Expected Behavior (long text), Actual Behavior (long text), Environment (dropdown), and Screenshot (attachment). Share the form with QA, support, and beta testers.
Task Template
Create an Asana task template for bugs with the description pre-structured: Environment, Steps to Reproduce, Expected/Actual, and Workaround sections. Add subtasks for common QA steps: Reproduce, Fix, Verify, Regression Test.
Automation Rules
Set up Asana Rules: When Severity is set to Blocker, add to the on-call engineer task list and send Slack notification. When task moves to Verification, assign to QA. When all subtasks complete, move to Closed section.
Bug Dashboard
Use Asana Reporting to create a bug dashboard: bugs by severity (chart), open bugs by age (chart), and resolution rate trend (chart). Pin the dashboard for weekly bug review meetings.
