what is the definition of defect?

Answer Posted / chaitanya

A bug is an error, mistake, failure in a computer program
that prevents it from working as intended. Bugs arise from
mistakes and errors made by people, in either a program's
source code or its design.

A defect is one that causes a reproducible malfunction. A
malfunction is considered reproducible if it occurs
consistently under the same circumstances.
