    <h2>From a training/process point of view:</h2> <p>Train your team to know that "works on my machine" is not a get-out-of-jail-free response.</p> <p>Have an <a href="http://confluence.public.thoughtworks.org/display/CCNET/Welcome+to+CruiseControl.NET" rel="noreferrer">automated build server</a>.</p> <p>Have an automated test deployment.</p> <p>Your developers must know that "works" is defined as "works on the test server", not just their machine.</p> <h2>From a testing/debugging point of view:</h2> <p>The developer needs to be shown the sequence of actions that result in the bug happening.</p> <p>You might want to capture screenshots showing the bug, or possibly a video capture (using tools such as <a href="http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.asp" rel="noreferrer">Camtasia</a>). People can be quite bad at describing the sequence of actions that they performed on a system that led to a bug showing itself, so the more information you can capture about the bug and how to replicate itself the better.</p> <h2>From a development/environment point of view:</h2> <p>If there is genuinely a bug that exhibits itself on one environment but not the developer's then find out if it exhibits itself on no development environments, or just your one developer's.</p> <p>From thereon in it is a case of trying to reduce the differences between the two environments so that your developer can see the issue on his machine.</p> <p>Or you can go the other way and attempt to debug the issue on the production (non-development) environment.</p> <p>Implementation details of these vary by platform.</p>
