Answer / biswal

HumanBeing is made for Mistake.

When a developer makes a mistake (Syntactic or Semantic) in
an application that is called Error in coding.

When a tester while testing finds that error hile
execution,it is called Defect (or Bug).

At the system level testing of the whole application if u
find a defect in the software,it is called Fault.

If End user finds that the software is not as per the
requirement,it is called Failure)

Answer / ananth

Defect is non conformance to the requirements and the test case.
Bug is a undesired functionality crept in. This could be
because of a scenario not thought of during requirements
gathering.
The best example of a bug is the Y2K. most of the systems
worked up to 1999 and couldn't round of to year 2000.
The floor and ceil is another example - 14.3 when rounded
off should round off to 14 and not 15 as per majority of the
requirement.
