- For customers who have purchased feature development, it is a prerequisite to run the Beta version within their production environment.

- Any prior issues (bugs, missing functionality, etc.) or new ones related to the upgrade to the Beta version need to be addressed separately and conform to the below bug report format. Being on Beta doesn't mean that all issues can or will be addressed; some might require unplanned and purchased feature development.

- You agree to be upgraded as soon as possible, once we've notified you about a new release.
- The Release Notes are available online and are updated with every release notification and shipped with each installer, these are the first and only line of documentation during the Beta development phase.

Please send us First Name, Last Name, Title, email address of:
- Main Farmer(s)
- Main IT contact(s)
- Main farmerswife user(s)
All recipients you have informed us about, will receive a notification once a next Beta version is ready to be downloaded and installed.
New feature development bears the higher risk of new bugs being introduced, or previously working functionality to contain bugs. We need to be able to fast replicate the bugs, in order to fix them. Please immediately report bugs to [email protected]. Use the below format, which it makes it easier for us to clearly understand the issue:
Bug or issue report:
Email Subject: short description of the problem or bug. For example: "Client crash on opening Project #12345 on WIFE-Beta-version-xyz" is already a lot more useful than "farmerswife crashes" or "problem".
Email content:
DO:
WHAT and WHERE is the issue?:
Describe the steps that lead to the issue. Any window in farmerswife has its own title name. Using these descriptions is the best and easiest way to communicate to us, to what you are referring too within the system.
Make a screen recording or consider adding screen shots and please make sure all needed information is visible on it. When trouble shooting issues, surrounding info on the screen shots typically helps us a lot. We will instantly see, if you're working on Mac or Windows, we can see the date and time when this happened and it helps us to see, where in farmerswife the issue is happening.
HAPPENS:
Describe in few words what happened after the above actions.
SHOULD:
Describe what you expected to happen.
If a farmerswife Client app crash was involved, we need the "error.txt" from the machine where the crash happened; the error.txt is located in the installation folder of the farmerswife Client software.
Please see below where to find the file.
Windows Path
The path to find the error.txt on Windows is the local farmerswife Client root installation folder where this crash happened; for example C:\Program Files\Farmers WIFE\
Mac Path
To find the error.txt on Mac OS X "Ctrl + click" on the farmerswife Client application icon and select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up menu.
