When building software, two words come up often—bug and defect. These terms are frequently used interchangeably, even by experienced developers and testers. However, in professional software testing and quality assurance, distinguishing between a bug and a defect is crucial. Misunderstanding these concepts can lead to miscommunication, faulty test coverage, or even project failures. But once you understand their unique meanings and how they interact within the development lifecycle, your testing strategies become sharper, more focused, and better aligned with business outcomes.
