When ever we find a mismatch in coding then it is called as
an error,and that error found out by tester in the testing
stage is called as a defect,when that defect isaccepted by
developers and client is called as an Bug

Answer / mercy
I feel that bug and defect are all the same. Some
organizations use any discrepancy between actual and
expected as bug and some as defect. The terminology we use
is....a discrepancy is called error at the tester's site,
it is called defect finally after accepted by the developer
and as a bug when found in the software after release into
production. Correct me if I am wrong.

Answer / denny li
"bug" is just a general and informal word for any error or
defect. But we have to talk about some other terms -
"error" and "fault" if we want to know "defect"...
"error" is formal term in software development/testing
which refers to the fault discovered in the same phase
where it is introduced. "defect" is formal term in software
development/testing which refers to the fault discovered
after the phase where it is introduced. "fault" consists
of "error" and "defect".

Answer / iyarusamy
a bug is that if the code has bug the code could be
processed it proceed with the next step but produce
unexpected output
in the case of error the code cannot be processed it will
not proceed to next step if error is present at that
particular point it stops the functionality

Answer / lakshmi
The discrepancy between the actual and the expected result
is said to be a bug.
Bug is the term that is used by the Test Engineer and
defect is the term that is used by the developers.
