It causes unexpected or incorrect results when the application is used.
Defect management in software testing refers to the process of systematically identifying and fixing bugs.
A defect management process consists of the following steps: Discovery Categorization Fixing/Resolution Verification Closure Reports Leading software testing companies go about implementing each step of the defect management process to ensure the app is optimal.
A defect is said to be discovered and changed to status accepted when it is acknowledged and accepted by the developer end.
In case the testing team and the developers do not reach an agreement, the role of the test manager becomes extremely crucial here as he/she gets to decide whether the developers are right or the testers are.
