Installation of Mantis Bug Tracker

MantisBT is a web based bug tracking system that was first made available to the public in November 2000. Over time it has matured and gained a lot of popularity, and now it has become one of the most popular open source bug/issue tracking systems. MantisBT is developed in PHP, with support to multiple database backends including MySQL, MS SQL, PostgreSQL and DB2.

MantisBT can be downloaded from the following link.
https://www.mantisbt.org/download.php

Then MantisBT should be configured as follows for web based accessing through team members.

smtp.gmail.com
$g_log_destination         = 'file:C:\mantisbt.log';
$g_smtp_port = '587';

   $g_phpMailer_method = PHPMAILER_METHOD_SMTP;
   $g_smtp_host = 'smtp.gmail.com';
   $g_smtp_username = 'username@gmail.com';
   $g_smtp_password = 'yourpassword';
   $g_smtp_connection_mode = 'ssl';
   $g_smtp_port = 465;


Now MantisBT can be used for bug tracking and reporting in software Quality Assurance.
