Abstract

There are a variety of models, methods and tools to help organizations manage defects found in the development of software. Defect tracking and processing must be integrated in the project life cycle and the testing process for software. This paper reviews a number of defect models and proposes the Full Life Cycle Defect Process model to manage defects that supports defect, project, and test processes. We describe the various states in our model and provide examples of various scenarios and paths through the model.
