Defect Age : The time of introduction of defect to time of detection. To compute the measurement one assigns a number to each software development life-cycle phase and calculates difference between detection phase with introduction phase (i.e. "analysis" can be assigned a 1, "design" a 2, "coding" a 3, etc. for computation of defect age).

Build interval period: this is the time taken to build newer version of the application and older version.

Defect age is nothing but the time gap between defect report & fix

Build interval period is nothing but the time gap between two consecutive builds releases from development team

Defect Age:

It is the period of time in which a defect is in a particular category such as Open, Closed etc.

Build Interval Period:

It is the time taken to release a new version from old version.

defect age:

time duration between bug detection and bug correction.

build interval period :

time duration between present build and next build given in the testing.

hi all,

Defect Age: defect finding date and defect closing date period is Defect age.

Build Intervel

hi all,

Defect Age: defect finding date and defect closing date period is Defect age.

Build Intervel Period: if we found a bug in version1.0 then sent it to development team n they solved that

they will release new version 2.0

the time gap between version releases is called build intervel.

Defect Age: 

Single defect:  The amount of time between a defect's origination and its fix.

Multiple defects:  The average amount of time between defect origination and fix.

Build Interval Period: 

Single build:  The amount of time from one software build delivery to the next.

Multiple builds:  The average amount of time between build deliveries.

Defect Age can be measured in terms of any of the following:

    * Time
    * Phases

DEFECT AGE (IN TIME)

Definition

Defect Age (in Time) is the difference in time between the date a defect is detected and the current date (if the defect is still open) or the date the defect was fixed (if the defect is already fixed).  

Elaboration

The 'defects' are:

    * confirmed and assigned (not just reported).
    * Dropped defects are not counted.

The ‘difference in time’ can be calculated in hours or in days.

‘fixed’ means that the defect is verified and closed, not just ‘completed’ by the developer.

Example

If a defect was detected on 01/01/2009 10:00:00 AM and closed on 01/04/2009 12:00:00 PM, the Defect Age is 74 hours.

Build Intervel Period

Build interval period is the time between two builds released for testing..

(Like Build 200 Build 201...)

During this period testers will be testing on the build which has been released & Developers will be working on 1. the build which is going to be released. & 2. also on bugs which are filed by the testers for the build which was released.

Defect age: the time interval between date of defect detection and date of defect closure.
