Defect/Bugs in Software Testing
Bug:
A bug is a fault in a program which causes it to behave abruptly. Bugs are usually
found either during unit testing done by developer of module testing by testers.
Defect:
A defect is found when the application does not conform to the requirement
specification. A defect can also be found when the client or user is testing.
Example:
According to newspaper stories in mid-2001, a major systems development
contractor was fired and sued over problems with a large retirement plan
management system. According to the reports, the client claimed that system
deliveries were late, the software had excessive defects, and it caused other
systems to crash.
Bugs in software supporting a large commercial high-speed data network affected
70,000 business customers over a period of 8 days in August of 1999. Among those
affected was the electronic trading system of the largest U.S. futures exchange,
which was shut down for most of a week as a result of the outages.
