WHAT IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUG AND DEFECT

Answer Posted / aakash

There is a slight difference between 'Defect' and 'Bug'.

Defect- A flaw or fault in the system that causes system failure (Deviation from requirement).

Once tester logs the defect and assigns to a developer (defect cycle) then the developer accepts the defect. This acknowledged defect by developer is called 'Bug' in the programe.

Bug- an error in the programme.

According to ISTQB, both terms are used interchangeably.
