What is the difference between defect tracking tool and QC?

Answer Posted / lance

WOW a simple question and the message board police come out
and make the intial guy asking the question look stupid.

If you know the answer, then answer, if you dont know they
answer keep your judgements to yourself.

In terms of QC and Defect Tracking Systems..

Defect Tracking systems specialize in communicating info
related to software issues (bugs, features, etc) and
tracking the work done on these as they are related to
software releases.

QC or Quality Center is more of a Application Test
management tool that allows for entering requirements,
creating test cases and associating with requirements,
entering defects, testing items, reporting on testing
metrics.

QC is not a very effective Defect Tracking tool. Most
defect tracking tools track more that defects. They are
commonly referred to a issue tracking tools.
