Answer / mohamed azath .m
defect means deviation . it is kind of two types
1, product requirement
2, user expextations
product requirement:
product requirement is a service .
for examples
if it is customer satisfied the requirememt of a
product to the value of adding a and b = c . but the
product has to be modelling and designation to the value of
c and b =c . that the product was follow as defect occurs .
user expectations ;
user expectations is to given a product to our
customer requirements . but the product missing one
application prtogrmming . so user expectations it is not
satified the customers ..
for examples :
if it is customer wants to print a document in
landscape mode and to print a document in envuelope mode .
if this option is not available for a product . so that the
product will not find the software . so it is called defect .
