It is really based on company's culture and the process the
company uses to develope its software.
Defect: it is tend to imply a condition that's really
severe, may be even dangerous.
Error/Bug: It is an anomaly and variance. It don't sound
quite so negative and infer more unintended operation than
an allout failure.
In software industry we generaly use the term "BUG".
and we use it when
1. The software does something that the product spec says
it shouldn't do.
2. The software doesn't do something that the product spec
says it should do., etc.
