Please add this javascript into the description of the field 'description' in field configuration.

<script type="text/javascript">
var issuetype = document.getElementById("issuetype");
var description = document.getElementById("description");
if (issuetype.value = "bug") { 
description.value = "Version: \n Precondition: \n Reproduction Steps: \n Expected Results: \n Actual Results: \n Additional Information: \n Sample Testcase: \n" ; 
}
</script>

@Nic Brough [Adaptavist] Very true!! People will stop giving importance for filling the description field while creating the issue. 

@Luvo Though you can use it only if you are very sure of your purpose.

I'd recommend that you don't.  Every system I've seen with defaulted text like this is littered with tens of thousands of identical (and hence useless) descriptions filled with just the default.
