Defect tracking is essential for ensuring the quality and reliability of software applications. It helps identify and address issues before they impact end-users.
Defect Tracking Systems
Use a defect tracking system to record, track, and manage defects. These systems provide a centralized location for storing and organizing defect information.
Defect Reporting
Encourage employees to report defects promptly. Provide clear guidelines for reporting defects, including information on how to reproduce the issue and the expected behavior.
Defect Prioritization
Prioritize defects based on their severity and impact on the software. Focus on addressing critical defects that can affect the functionality or usability of the application.
Defect Resolution
Assign defects to developers for resolution. Track the progress of defect resolution and ensure that issues are addressed in a timely manner.
Verification and Closure
After a defect has been resolved, verify that the issue has been fixed and the software is functioning as expected. Close the defect once it has been successfully resolved.
