completed.

to be tested by test engineer for stability.....or....in short
(it is a piece of software that is developed from the raw code).
RELEASE-A release is a complete setup feature developed,tested
and given to the customer for their usage...or...All the activities from the requirement stage to till it is installed in the production environment is known as RELEASE...or ... a release is a piece of s/w which consists of many builds.

Difference between Build,Release and Version
NO Build Release Version
1 Build is Executable file. Release means which ready to use it. Version is extension of the build.
2 Build is handed over to the tester to test the developed part of the project. Release hand it over to Client/Customer after completion of development and testing phase. Version is number of release made according to the addition of requirement of the client.
3 Build refers to the S/W part which still in testing. or which is not tested yet. Release refers to the S/W which is no longer in testing. Version refer Variation of an earlier or original type of S/W
4 Build can be rejected by test team if defect found or it does not meet the certain requirement. One Release can have several builds associated with it. Version based on the Build, not Vice Versa..
5 Build is nothing but a part of the application. Release is noting but the application. Version is nothing but the application.

Answer / a. chaudhry
Build is the "Apple" from the tree handed over to you to
test whether it is edible or not ( functionality) .
After eating and digesting the "Apple" it's time to
Release it and we finally hand it over to the client of the
project.
Version is basically nothing but the number of releases
you made according to the addition of the requirement of the
client. :-)

Answer / manohar
Build - In the refinement of a specific module, the
developer and tester deals with this module in multiple
releases.
Each such release is called build.
Version - Whenever a new requirement is added to the already
existing version/functionality version will be changed.
e.g QTP 9.2 released with new version QTP 9.5 with new
features and enhancements.
Release - When the developed product(build) is sent to
testing team, it is called Release
Delivery - The refined product will be sent to the client
