Can you explain about defect life cycle?
Answer Posted / meenakshi p.
firstly know about what is a bug?
Bug is nothing but deviation from what we are expecting
i.e., difference between expected result and the actual
result .
If the test engineer encounters bug while executing test
cases first he will try to reproduce it in different
platforms the same bug is coming or not and confirm it with
developer or team lead (whom so ever is concern) whether it
is bug or not. Then he will post the bug to the
dev/teamlead in any bug tracking tool (like bugzilla).
The TE should draft a bug in a detailed manner by using
following attributes like:
Project or product
Version
Module
Submodule
Priority
Severity
Summary
Description under description: Steps to reproduce should
be in such a way that when developer performs these steps
he should be able to reproduce the bug i.e., from launching
the Internet explorer to the screen in which the bug has
found.
and
Error noticed
Expected result
Test environment: like browser, operating system, computer
etc..
Testers notes
Screen shots as a proof
when the assigned to the developer or team lead,then
Developer will fix the resolution types as any one of the
following
Resolve fixed
Resolve wont fix
Resolve works for me
Resolve invalid
Resolve duplicate
Resolve later
If the Resolution type as fixed then the T.E. will verify
whether it is fixed by satisfying the functionality of the
application then T.E. will close the bug otherwise he will
again reopen the bug if it is not satisfying the
functionality
If the bug is of wont fix means developer does not want to
fix as it affects the entire application or dont require to
fix
If the bug is of works for me i.e, in developers
environment it is working fine then T.E. again try to
reproduce the bug and he will post the bug with some
additional (detailed) information
If the resolution type as invalid in developer doesnot
accept it as a bug or it does not match the requirements.
If the bug is of duplicate somebody has already posted the
same bug then the resolution will be duplicate
If the resolution type is of later it means that he will
fix the bug in next version
