RE: New Bug and Open Bug
 
New: As part of testing when you find an issue, you perform all the relevant checks, like whether it was occurring in the earlier release, if so then you will reopen the bug, if not then you will create new defect and the status of that defect will be "NEW"

Open: Once you open a new bug, it will be revised by Development/Project Manager and then he will assign it to the developer, then the status of the bug will be changed from NEW to OPEN

Thanks
