what is the difference between error,bug and defect?

Answer Posted / hrishikesh

A mistake or fault done in the coding that makes error to
lead the program execution is called error..

If the error caught by tester then it is called as defect
or simply we can say the mismatch between actual and
expected result...

If the defect is accepted by the development people then it
is called as Bug.
