What are the stages of the Bug?? What is the exact life cycle of the bug??..

Answer / rohit

Bug life cycle

1. When a new bug is found, it is assigned status as NEW
and is assigned to developer.

2. The project manager checks whether the bug is valid or
not. Suppose for billing sysytem the valid password is dang
& the tester is testing the functionality with some other
password wich causes login failure, en the manager will
assign the status as REJECTED & assign it back to tester.

3. If defect is valid then it is checked whether it is in
scope or not. If not, then the defect is assigned status as
POSTPONED.
4. Then it is checked whether same defect was raised
earlier or not. If yes, then the defect is assigned status
as DUPLICATE.
5. If no, then the defect is assigned to developer with
status IN PROGRESS.
6. Once the defect is fixed, it's status changes to fixed &
assigned to tester.
7. then the tester will retest & if it is fixed then assign
status as closed.
8. If not, then it is reopened.

Answer / haritha

Bug life cycle:there are 6 stages
1.detect the defect
2. reproduce the defect
3. report the defect
4. fix the defect
5.resolve the defect
6.close the defect

while fixing the defect we assign status to the bug as
1. new: when it is found by the tester for the first time
2.open: when they are solving the defect then set the status
as open
3.rejected:if they feel it as not a defect then set the
status as rejected
4. differed: if they accept the defect and not interested to
resolve it in this version then set the status as differed
5.closed:if the defect was resolved then set the status as
closed
6. reopen:after the defect was resolved and when we perform
regression testing if the defect was found again then we
will set the status as reopen
