What is defect life cyce?

Answer Posted / shankar

When a tester finds a defect in application, He will send
the defect report to the PL with the status as NEW. He will
check the bug whether it was bug or not. If it was a bug
then he will change the defect status as OPEN and send the
same to the corresponding developer to fix. If it was not a
bug, he may change the status as NOT A BUG, NEED MORE INFO,
CAN'T REPROD. Once it was opened, The corresponding
Developer fix the defect and send the defect report to the
Tester with status as FIXED and release the modified build.
Tester will perform Retest and Regression testing on the
modified build and he will change the status as FIX-
VERIFIED and send the same to the Test Lead. Test Lead will
CLOSE the defect.

hi all I have an overall experience of 12 years working in an EDP setup(worked in a manufacturing setup in a German MNC). On my request, I was relieved from my duties in Sep 06 for maternity reasons. However I would like to pursue a career in a software organization as a manual tester. I obtained my proficiency certificate in Software Testing from STAG SOFTWARE LIMITED 2 months ago i.e in May and would now like to continue working in this field. However I am unable to find a job until now. If anybody knows of a opening at bangalore, kindly let me know.
