Error : A mistake in coding is called Error.
Defect or Issue : When tester find that mistake during test
execution, test engineers called defect or issue.
Bug : When developers accepted that defect to solve , that
is called bug.
An error in coding identified through sample executions
(otherwise at the testing phase) is called a defect.
This identified defect which does not throw out the ER=AR
is a bug present in the software.
However its easy for one to consider bug and defect to mean
one and the same thing as there is a very fine line between
the two.
Finding the errors is called Bug/issues some people says
When tester find that mistake during test execution is
called
Client side people identify the errors is called defect
HumanBeing is made for Mistake.
When a developer makes a mistake (Syntactic or Semantic) in
an application that is called Error in coding.
When a tester while testing finds that error hile
execution,it is called Defect (or Bug).
At the system level testing of the whole application if u
find a defect in the software,it is called Fault.
If End user finds that the software is not as per the
requirement,it is called Failure)
when a developer identified an error during coding is called
Bug.
When the tester test the application and find the issues it
is called defect.
(Whenever a build is deployed and the tester finds the
issues is called defect).
Bug and Defect both are same.
Tester uses the term Defect when talking about
functionality, where as developer uses the term bug talking
about the Code.
Defect is non conformance to the requirements and the test case.
Bug is a undesired functionality crept in. This could be
because of a scenario not thought of during requirements
gathering.
The best example of a bug is the Y2K. most of the systems
worked up to 1999 and couldn't round of to year 2000.
The floor and ceil is another example - 14.3 when rounded
off should round off to 14 and not 15 as per majority of the
requirement.
Am asked in interview that How are u going to write test
cases? I replied him that we refer to usecase diagrams and
the requirements documents to write test case. Did i replied
him anything wrong?
How to report Negative Test Cases? Do we need to insert any
new column in the Test Case Document for Negative Test
Cases seperately? I'm very much confused. Please answer this
question!!!
As a real time emloyee how can we define
(i)Measure (ii)measurement (iii)Metric and (iv)Indicator----
----- plz don't mention the Text book defenation...
thnx in advns
