It is particularly useful when testing an application that has a number of bugs. Each bug can be recorded and the resolution description can be added (using WRKBUG) when the problem has been found and corrected.

The ADDBUG command has the added benefit of allowing you to capture and store the Joblog and any dumps that were generated. This is particularly useful for the programmer that has to investigate the bug and can provide crucial information regarding the exact conditions that generated the original bug.
