1. Software Testing Online Training DEFECT TRACKING & CORRECTION www.garudatrainings.com

2. “A defect is an operation or function that fails to meet the products specification…. To be precise a defect is any non-conformity in a software product or process” What is defect…? www.garudatrainings.com

3. The defect discovering process enables us to identify defects. This process involves reveling defects and bringing the defect to the notice of the development team. The development team then acknowledges the defect as valid and fix the defect. The tester verifies and close the defect in the end. Defect discovery process… www.garudatrainings.com

4. Defect tracking life cycle… Reporting a defect Verifies fixes internally Verifies the fixes Closing or reopening defect based on the defect status Fixing the defect Acknowledging the defect Raising a defect TESTER TESTERTESTER TESTERTESTER DEVELOPERDEVELOPER DEVELOPERDEVELOPER www.garudatrainings.com

5. Finding Defects…

6. The three category of defect finding techniques are jointly required for an effective defect management program in an organization. StaticDynamicOperational “Static technique are more effective at finding defects in the early phase of the SDLC” www.garudatrainings.com

7. Categorizing defects… On the basis of Functionality Severity Priority www.garudatrainings.com

8. Interface- related Navigational Functional On the Basis of functionality www.garudatrainings.com

9. High Severity Medium severity Low severity On the Basis of severity www.garudatrainings.com

10. High Severity Medium Severity Low Severity Signifies that a minor issue occurred that costs some loss of functions. However workaround and testing can proceed without interruption. www.garudatrainings.com

11. High priority Medium priority Low priority On the basis of priority… Signifies that a defect has a major impact on the customer. This must be immediately fixed Signifies that a defect has a major impact on the customer. The problem should be fixed before the release of the current version in development Signifies that a defect has a minor impact on the customer. The flaw should be fixed if there is time, but it can be deferred until the next release. www.garudatrainings.com

12. Acknowledging defects is common in software testing environment Even though defect acknowledgment is a crucial stage in the defect life cycle, there are often delays in the process. One of the prominent reasons for delays in the acknowledgment of the defect is when the testing team is unable to replicate the defect report for the development team Acknowledging defects… www.garudatrainings.com

13. The defect management process, involves defect recording, defect reporting, keeping track of the defect using defect tracking tool. Defect recording defects are identified and recorded at each stage of the testing process. Defect management process www.garudatrainings.com

14. 4 purpose To correct the defect To report the status of the application To gather statistics To further improve for software development process Why to record??? www.garudatrainings.com

15. A defect report describes those which are present in the software.. A defect report should provide complete information on the defect to both the testing team and the team responsible for fixing the defect. Defect reporting www.garudatrainings.com

16. A unique identification no. for the defect. The defect name and type. Source of the defect Severity of the defect. Priority assigned to the defect. The current status of the defect. Detailed description of the defect. The platform and operating system implemented. The steps performed when the defect occurs. The location of the defect with screen shots. The Person responsible for testing. The person responsible for fixing the defect. Contents of defect report www.garudatrainings.com
