what is defect clustering and pesticide paradox?

Answer Posted / deepthi

Defect Clustering: Finding more defects in one particular
area (or)in one functionality. The reasons Might be (1) Lack
of dev Experience (2) poor Requirements (3)Several Defects
are fixed by many developers to same functionality (4)
Fixing of new defect can cause new defect in the same
functionality.

Pesticide Paradox: We need to updated our Test Cases as
executing the same old test cases will no longer produce new
defects
