WHAT IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUG AND DEFECT

Answer Posted / deya

Well, I think that there is something else about it..

DEFECT
BUG
FAILURE

In this sense:

Defect - Is a not desired state found in documents,
diagrams and even code but not discovered testing the
application. A defect COULD anticipate a BUG and also avoid
it.

BUG - A not desirable state of an application, found by
excercise the system in an phase dedicated to that.
(testing phase). If a BUG is not detected on time, it could
raise a FAILURE.

FAILURE - Something wrong with the application but found
after it was realeased and that fails some application
requirement.
