what is meant by defect tracking?

Question Posted / gowtham


what is meant by defect tracking?..

Answer / biju

When a defect is found, it should be communicated to the
development team. The defects can be communicated through
any of the defect tracking tool or even through the excel
spreadsheet. There are certain formats to be followed while
communicating the status of the defects. Each and every
organization or solution provider follows their own style
to assign the status of defects.

In the initial stage a defect will be marked as “New” and
posted in the Defect tracking tool. It is the developer’s
responsibility to change the status as “Open” or Work in
progress (WIP).when the defect is fixed, the developer
marks the defect as “Fixed” and sends to the testing team.
It is the responsibility of the tester to verify the defect
whether it is fixed and change the status as “Closed”.
