Google Issue tracking software?


What is the issue tracking system used by Google Code to track projects like GWT http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/list Chromium http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/list etc?

I'd like to know if this bug tracking software is an open source project available for download.


Solution

  • When you create a new project on code.google.com, the issue tracker comes with it. As far as I know, this is a custom issue tracker built for Google Project Hosting, and according to Wikipedia, the code for Google's issue tracker isn't open source. They do have an API for building client applications that interact with the Issue Tracker, though. An open source client library has been written in C#, but I haven't used it, so I can't speak to its functionality or flexibility.
