82 Bugs I Collected in a Year You Won’t Believe Made It to Production
summary
The dataset contains 279 bugs collected over about two years with 124 bugs in 2024; most are UI issues but the riskiest are data validation and error‑handling bugs that block users. Common subtypes: responsiveness failures, unresolved templates, unfiltered error messages exposing stack traces and file paths, and calculation errors (about 10 notable cases). Repro steps often fail, so mitigation focuses on WebdriverIO and Playwright, dogfooding, exploratory testing, server‑side rendering, heatmaps (PostHog), and centralized frontend error logging.
