Sample bug reports for web and product applications

On request from may readers I am updating sample bug report on separate page. Here are couple of sample bug reports and treat them as samples only. You can always make the changes in bug report format as per your requirements. It’s not mandatory to use same fields in same sequence as specified below. You can find out your own working template.
Read below articles on more guide on writing good bug report:

Sample bug report 2: Application product Bug report sample
Application testing scenario:
Lets assume in your application you want to create a new user with his/her information, for that you need to logon into the application and navigate to USERS menu > New User, then enter all the details in the User form like, First Name, Last Name, Age, Address, Phone etc. Once you enter all these need to click on SAVE button in order to save the user and you can see a success message saying, “New User has been created successfully”.
Now you entered into your application by logging in and navigate to USERS menu > New user, entered all the information and clicked on SAVE button and now the application crashed and you can see one error page on the screen, now you would like to report this BUG.
Now here is how we can report bug for above scenario:
