Information gathering: logs, traces, screenshots, videos, reproduction steps.
Problem isolation: attempting to reproduce the bug on different environments, devices, software versions.
Log analysis: searching for suspicious entries, errors, stack traces.
Code review (for automation testers): examining the relevant code section, identifying potential logical errors.
Comparison with expected behavior: analyzing documentation, requirements, or previous experience.
