I am looking for information on various "trouble reporting" systems. By "trouble reporting" I am refering to a system by which problems found with the project--software, hardware, or documentation--can be tracked. Anybody should be able to enter a problem such as the software engineer, test engineer, customer, or internal users. I am working on a project at Teltone Corp, that currently has a manual trouble reporting system. We are looking to convert this manual process to a database system with interfaces. One thought is to include in this system the ability to not only track troubles but also new work items, changes requests to change software on a current revision, and the tracking of both unit and integration testing. What I am interested in finding out is how other research and development companies handle this kind of problem, what software is used (software developed in house or purchased), and how does it work. We would like this system to go onto a Pyramid machine running UN*X, 4.2 bsd and System V. Any response would be appreciated.
