Couldn't agree more with you Mr.Expert ! Thanks for providing minute details on these terms. You have explained properly and precisely the difference between defect and bug. Somebody asked me the same question a day ago,will refer them to this video. Great quick video !
How about this? Defect : the main issue like not able to click certain button Bug : superset of defect which defines the defect in more detailed manner Failure : what failure you are facing because of defect .like in above case where certain button is not working and so are not able to fill the form which is failure Error : something not in the context of code which is still causing you a issue. Like url is crashing for some db related issue
Here's my idea of the difference between the mentioned terms: Error - Discrepancy between observed and the expected behaviour/value/performance. Failure - Inability of a system or its components to perform it's required functions within specified performance requirements. Defect - The hinderances/blockages that causes test case failures. Bug - A documented log of a defect in Azure Devops/JIRA. Please correct if I'm wrong here.
They are nearly the same but different technically. This is how is flows in lifecycle ERROR -> BUG ->DEFECT -> FAILURE. Where is confuses people is Bug and Defect. Defect is from QA standpoint because when actually doesn't match the expected requirement. However its a bug in the system or application that cause that defect.
There is no difference between Defect and Bug in first place; Different test management tools have different term . For example HP ALM use the terms Defect where as Jira use the Bug term. Thats it No technical difference it is as simple as that.
Depending upon number of yrs.of experience, Anmash they will ask you this question. But its always good to learn minute differences between them Good luck for your interview. I wish you get through.

Nice Rohit
Thank you Naveen for sharing this in prompt time.
Thanks a lot Naveen for such a wonderful explanation. 😊👍
Im a Test lead with 9 years of experience and I faced this quesiton in interview today.
As a tester, I see an ERROR that results in test FAILURE which is due to a DEFECT in code and so raised a BUG..... 😊😊😊😊
Cool
So much Thanks Naveen for this video. 💙 Google answers for this question were so confusing.
Thanks naveen 👍
Thnku very much for share this.. I got this msg in my first interview and I got confused.. all seems same to me.
Can we say if an issue we find in lower environment or in a testing environment called defect...and if an issue we found on production called bug ?
Nicely Explained 👍
Glad that you liked it
Thank you Master😊
Much needed info for beginners..!! Thanks for sharing Naveen.

Defect and error meaning is switched.
Thanks naveen

Have interview at 4. Hopefully this will be asked! 😁

All the best bro
Best wishes
Defect when we are not getting expected output.
Bug is mistake made by programmers.
Failure when product fails to fulfill certain conditions.
Interviewer do ask this
