Home » Blogs » Survey: Fixing Bugs Stealing Time from Development
A global survey of 950 developers published today finds more than a third (38%) of developers spend up to a quarter of their time fixing software bugs, with slightly more than a quarter (26%) spending up to half their time fixing bugs.
More than one-fourth (26%) of developers also said that their employers have lost a significant number of users due to errors in software.
More than half of developers (55%) said that if they didn’t have to spend so much time fixing bugs, they would have the time to build new features and functionality.
Nearly a third of the survey group (31%) said that manually responding to errors makes them feel frustrated, while more than a fifth (22%) said they feel overwhelmed when using manual processes to address errors in software.
