Connecting Practice

Below is the defect life cycle diagram.

Moreover, in “Defect Workflow for Mantis Bug Tracking System” topic, I described the defect workflow used by client, QA team, and Software Developer team in Mantis. In this piece, I improved the defect workflow aim to help client, QA team, and Software Developer team works and/or tasks further. The conformance to the defect workflow woould govern them to:

~ reduce the gaps due to lack of knowledge on the implied quality needs (specified in a project request and design, produced by the programmers, what the clients wanted) and/or approach governing the quality of their deliverables and products.
~ re-enforce Mantis;
~ optimize the current defect management process;
~ improve the quality of the deliverables;
~ improve team collaboration;
~ reduce errors or deficiencies in the process; and
~ prevent unforeseen problems.

The perceived benefits would be good service, lower development cost, and achieving the best possible results.
