Software Bug / Defect Life Cycle




*       Let’s look into it. Suppose a tester finds a defect .The defect is assigned a status, new.

*       The defect is assigned to development project manager who will analyze the defect. He will check whether it is a valid defect.

*       If not , next the defect is checked whether it is in scope. Suppose you find a problem with the email functionality. But it is not part of the current release .Such defects are postponed

*       Next, manager checks whether a similar defect was raised earlier . If yes defect is assigned a status duplicate
*       If no the defect is assigned to developer who starts fixing the code. During this stage defect is assigned a statusin- progress.

*       Once code is fixed. Defect is assigned a status fixed

*       Next the tester will re-test the code. In case the test case passes the defect is closed.

*       If the test cases fails again the defect is re-opened and assigned to the developer

*       Consider a situation where during the 1st release of Flight Reservation a defect was found in Fax order which was fixed and assigned a status closed

*       During the second upgrade release the same defect again re-surfaced. In such cases, a closed defect will be re-opened. That’s all to Bug Life Cycle
