This definitely depends on the situation. Whenever we do QA tests, it's much more effective to just take a screenshot or video of the problem rather than wasting time trying to explain it in text.
- greenyoda 5y agoBut unless you add enough text to adequately describe the problem, nobody will be able to search for that issue later. As a developer, I find video repros to be particularly bad, since there's a lot of irrelevant stuff in the video that you have to skip over to get to the actual issue. If I get a ticket with a video repro, I always end up having to add a textual description for future reference (and to make life easier for other people who have to handle the ticket). By creating a video repro, you may be saving time for yourself, but wasting time for everyone else who has to understand what the issue is.
