Answer / deepu
A mistake in coding leads to 'ERROR' and when this error is identified by tester is called as a 'defect'.That means the difference between the expected result and the actual result is called as a DEFECT.
When the defect is fixed by the developer it is called as a BUG.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Answer / rajareddyy
Bug: Logical deviation- It will not show any error but it
will effect the system. (Ex: Online shopping- Suppose
customer placed the order and got the order conformation
but the details are not saved in DB or not reached the
marcandize)
Defect : Nothing but error it will not effect the system.
It occures due to syntax or exceptions.
