Free Bug Bash Timer
Use a bug bash timer for scope review, testing rounds, bug capture, triage, fix assignment, and closeout. Create an XTimer room when QA, product, design, and engineering need shared bug bash timing.
Built for this job
Testing rounds, capture, triage, and fix assignments stay separated.
Product and engineering can leave the session with clear bug owners.
XTimer rooms support shared bug bash timers across QA, product, design, and engineering.

Use this setup in XTimer
Need a controller link, viewer display, or shared room?
Keep this simple timer for quick work. Move into an XTimer room when one person controls the clock and another screen shows it to a speaker, team, class, or audience.
Presets that match real work
Start from a timer people already understand.
Each preset has a clear use case, duration, and workflow. That makes the page useful for search visitors immediately, and gives professional users a natural path into XTimer rooms when they need separate controller and viewer devices.

Frequently asked questions
What is a bug bash timer?
A bug bash timer structures scope review, test rounds, bug capture, triage, fix assignment, and closeout.
Does this track bugs?
No. XTimer is only a timing tool. Use your issue tracker or QA system to record bugs, severity, and owners.
Can testers share the bug bash timer?
Yes. Create an XTimer room when QA, product, design, and engineering need one shared bug bash countdown.
