To perform root cause analysis for software bugs, you can use an RCA workflow that selects the most suitable method based on available signals like stack traces and change history to identify the underlying cause.

The best way to document bug triage findings is to generate a structured analysis artifact that records the chosen RCA method, root cause, evidence, and suggested fix for effective governance.

You need a formal root cause analysis artifact when you must determine and document bug causes to guide effective fixes, ensuring the development team has structured evidence before proceeding.

RCA method selection works by evaluating available debugging signals such as stack traces, change history, and reproduction steps to dynamically choose the most suitable root cause analysis approach.

The next step after completing a bug root cause analysis is to proceed with the bugfix plan, using the generated analysis artifact to guide the actual implementation of the fix.

While possible, the quick start recommends beginning with bug triage to classify the bug first, ensuring the subsequent root cause analysis applies the most appropriate RCA methods based on initial signals.
