Answer / m.srikanth

In three situations we will change the status of a bug to
"Not A Bug".
1.Hold:- Whenever the developer is confused to accept or
reject its as a bug. Then he or she put its on a hold.

2.As per Design: Whenever the developer is done some changes
to the application, its were aware of test engineer and test
engineer raises its as bug and developer explains its was
done as per design released latestly.

3.Tester Error: Whenever Developer's lead or Developer
confirms its as a tester error in findout the bug.

In this scenario's the developer changes status as bug to
"Not a Bug".

Answer / hari

“Not a bug” status arises when Tester misunderstood
specifications and files bug according to his
understandings.

"Not a Bug" status should be given to above mentioned "As
per Design" situation, unless "By Design" status is
provided.

Answer / mudaseer

if test engineer misunderstands the requirement ie he thinks it as a bug but developer has developed according to requirement the status of bug is changed to not a bug.for example i had sent a bug to gmail.com the bug was i had saved some data in draft and i sent the data to my friend so the data was in sent items but it was not there in draft so i thought it should exist in drafts also so i prepared a report and send it to gmail but i discussed with my friends about the
bug i sent they told u have misunderstood the functionality.so the bug status was rejected

Answer / vijayta

The reason for changing the status of a bug to ' NOT A BUG'
might be:-
1.It might not be a bug but a feature in itself.Might
happened that at a very late stage the programmer was
intimated to introduce or change a feature i.e. there might
be a spec change which was not well communicated to tester
in time...so he considered it to be a bug.
2.Another reason may be that it be a testing error

Answer / arjun reddy.n

After getting the bug, we will be reporting the bug to the
developer via Test Lead. Based on the discussion with
developer and Test Lead, we can close the bug as " NOT A
BUG ".

The wording will not be " NOT A BUG " rather after
discussing u will be closing the bug under clarification
for your further reference.
