    What is Software Quality ?

    What is Error?

    •The Problem in code leads to errors, which means that a mistake can occur due
    to the developer's coding error as the developer misunderstood the
    requirement or the requirement was not defined correctly. The developers use
    the term error.

    •Ex:

    •A programmer might type a variable name incorrectly – leading to an Error. It is


    generated because of the incorrect login, loop, or syntax.
    What is Software Quality ?

    What is Defect?

    •If the functionality of an application is not working as per the customer


    requirement is known as a defect, It is found during the development phase
    while unit testing.

    •It is specified as the deviation from the actual and expected result of the
    application or software.

    •Ex:

    •Like By giving wrong input may lead to a defect or Any error in code may lead to
    a defect.
    What is Software Quality ?

    What is Bug?

    •an error found during the testing phase is called a bug.

    •It is an informal name specified to the defect.

    •The Test Engineers submit the bug.

    Ex:
    • Different type of bugs are as follows:

    1. Logic bugs
    2. Algorithmic bugs
    3. Resource bugs
    What is Software Quality ?

    What is Fault?

    •The Fault is a state that causes the software to fail to accomplish its essential
    function.

    •It is an informal name specified to the defect.

    •Sometimes due to certain factors such as Lack of resources or not following


    proper steps Fault occurs in software which means that the logic was not
    incorporated to handle the errors in the application.

    •The Term Fault usually announced by System and Regression Tester.


    Ex:
    • Different type of Faults are as follows:
    a.Business Logic Faults
    b.Functional and Logical Faults
    c.Faulty GUI
    d.Performance Faults
    e.Security Faults
    f.Software/ hardware fault
    What is Software Quality ?

    What is Failure?

    •Once the software is completed and delivered to the customer and if the
    customer found any issue in the software then it is the condition of failure of the
    software.
    •In other words, if an end user finds an issue in the software then that particular
    issue is called a failure.

    •The Term Failure usually announced in Acceptance Testing.

    Ex:
    A.Environmental condition
    B.System usage
    C.Users
    D.Human error
    E.Way to prevent the reasons
