When the error is found before the software release that is
called bug.
When error is found after software release that is called
defect.
when the actual result is different from expected result
called error.
Test approach: Which testing technniques we are going to
use for application.
Test strategy: we decide on what features tesing will be
performed.
Test plane: is detailed document that contains objective,
scope of application, resocurces, delivariables, on what
featurestesting is going to be performed, budget,
risk,time, who will perform testing etc.
Test Metholodgy documents: is a document containg all

Answer / mansi singhal
any syntax mistake is an error.
when that error is detected during the process of testing then that becomes a defect.
if that defect is accepted by the development team then it becomes a bug
and if the product is launched with that bug and due to that bug it is not able to meet the requirements of the end users then it becomes a fault.

Answer / anu
1)Error means deviation from an actual.
bug: an error found in the development environment is known as bug.
Defect: an error found in the product itself is known as defect
2)Test approach:it means that hw we are going to test the app.the way of approach for testing.
test strategy:it defines wt features we are going to test and wt not
test plan:it describes scope ,objective, purpose,wt functionalities needs to be tested,s/w and h/w req,risks ,mitigations milestones, schedules.
Test methodology: it describes types of testing methods that we have to be used for testing the app.
4)Methodologies we have used for developing test cases r
Boundary value analysis
ECP
Error guessing etc

for all the projects in that org.it is common 4r all
projs.it may be slightly changed upon customer's req.
test plan:is a project level term,which is specific for a
particular project in that org.it is varies frm project 2 proj.
it is strategic doc which contains som inf that describes
how to perform testing on a app in a effective,optimized way.
test approch:is a doc,in this mentioned how to do
testing,wat we need testing,and mentioted testing
methodolagies,testistin levels all are in this doc.
testmethodologies:how to do testing the applications,TE
maintain one doc 4r finding defects,wat type testing is used
4r app...

Answer / shabaaz
A human being can make an error (mistake), which produces a
defect (fault, bug) in the code, in software or a system, or
in a document. If a defect in code is executed, the system
will fail to do what it should do (or do something it
shouldn’t), causing a failure. Defects in software, systems or
documents may result in failures, but not all defects do so.
Failures can be caused by environmental conditions as well:
radiation, magnetism, electronic fields, and pollution can
cause faults in firmware or influence the execution of
software by changing hardware conditions.
