what is defect clustering and pesticide paradox?

Answer Posted / rajeshsinna

Defect clustering is a testing principle which can be stated
as : Number of modules which contain most of the defects
discovered during pre-release testing is small.


This paradox states that running the same tests over and
over again would not show any new defects because all
defects found using the initial test cases would eventually
all be fixed.
