Can anyone let me know that what would be done by the tester
if bug status changes to DUPLICATE,means what kind of action
or process should be done by tester?

Answer Posted / nidhi

There are two possibilities in case of duplicate bugs.

1) Original defect(first one to be logged) was
opened/closed in an earlier release/cycle.
2) Original defect was opened/closed in the same(current)
release/cycle where the duplicate defect was opened.

In Scenario 1, based on your project standards, you could
reopen the original defect and update the release/cycle
fields to reflect the recent release/cycle where the defect
was detected. Close the duplicate defect and associate it
with the original defect. Also state the original defect id
in the comments.

In Scenario 2, reopen the original defect.Close the
duplicate defect and associate it with the original defect.
Mention detailed notes stating release/cycle name where the
defect passed retest and was closed. Also mention the
release/cycle name where it was detected again/reopened.

{on a side note, duplicate defects are sometimes helpful in
identifying collateral damages done to the code during
various stages of development}
