“A defect is an operation or function that fails to meet the products specification…. To be precise a defect is any non-conformity in a software product or process”
Q:
What is defect…?

The defect discovering process enables us to identify defects.This process involves reveling defects and bringing the defect to the notice of the development team.
The development team then acknowledges the defect as valid and fix the defect.The tester verifies and close the defect in the end.Defect discovery process…www.garudatrainings.comSlide4

Every software development project plans for a set of activities that are specially designed and performed to uncover defects.There are three broad categories for detecting defects.Static technique Every software development project plans for a set of activities that are specially designed and performed to uncover defects.There are three broad categories for detecting defects.
Static technique Involves performing manual intermediate checks to examine the quality of the product being developed.Dynamic technique Refers to the process of executing software test to find defects.
Operational technique
Involves end users testing the system at the operational level and discovering defects that are not identified during the testing process.
Finding Defects…

The three category of defect finding techniques are jointly required for an effective defect management program in an organization.

Signifies that a minor issue occurred that costs some loss of functions. However workaround and testing can proceed without interruption.

Medium priorityLow priorityOn the basis of priority…
Signifies that a defect has a major impact on the customer. This must be immediately fixedSignifies that a defect has a major impact on the customer. The problem should be fixed before the release of the current version in developmentSignifies that a defect has a minor impact on the customer. The flaw should be fixed if there is time, but it can be deferred until the next release.

Even though defect acknowledgment is a crucial stage in the defect life cycle, there are often delays in the process.One of the prominent reasons for delays in the acknowledgment of the defect is when the testing team is unable to replicate the defect report for the development team
Acknowledging defects…www.garudatrainings.comSlide13The defect management process, involves defect recording, defect reporting, keeping track of the defect using defect tracking tool.
Defect recording defects are identified and recorded at each stage of the testing process.

To correct the defectTo report the status of the applicationTo gather statistics To further improve for software development processWhy to record???
www.garudatrainings.comSlide15A defect report describes those which are present in the software..
A defect report should provide complete information on the defect to both the testing team and the team responsible for fixing the defect.Defect reporting

A unique identification no. for the defect.The defect name and type.Source of the defectSeverity of the defect.Priority assigned to the defect.The current status of the defect.Detailed description of the defect.The platform and operating system implemented.
The steps performed when the defect occurs.The location of the defect with screen shots.The Person responsible for testing.The person responsible for fixing the defect. Contents of defect report
