Test life cycle is complete life cycle in testing ..i.e .test planning ,execution ,defect raising and fixing .typically includes all type of tests..

but where as defect life cycle is defect raised,(open) to defect closed.

here closed means not fixing it may depends on particular defect they may be triggerd to future or  changed to not a problem..(different ststus avalible)

but in that particluar version or build if that is closed then we call its complete bug life cycle or defect life cycle

Well.,

      This is for Testing life Cycle,

      Test Planing, Test Procedure, Test Case, Test Incident Report,Test Summary Log This is the testing life cycle.

Defect Report.

   New,open, fixed,Closed, And New,Reject,Closed, and Close,Reopen.

                         Reports

Defect or bug Life cycle:- Bug Creation

                                   Bug Assignments

                                   Bug evalution

Both are different.

in  test life cycle we discuss about testing,planning, developing,eecuting.reporting....

bug life cycle is a part of testing. in this we discuss about defect profile document. how the defects are rectified, what is the status of defect, ie new, open, close, reopen,hold....

Test life cycle:

1. Prepare the test strategy.
2. Prepare the test plan.
3. Prepare the test cases.
4. Execute the test cases.
5. Analyse the result.
6. Do the regression testing.
7. Submit the bug free build.


Defect life cycle:

1. If the bug is new then open it.
2. Assign it to tester.
3. Retest it.
4. If still have not resolved reasign it.
5. Retest it.
6. After resolving, close it.
