You can say in starting I reported 20-25 bugs per week and at later stages we had only 5-10 bugs and later it keeps on decreasing to 1-2 bugs per week.

RE: How many bugs in ur project? what will the correct...
well this can't be identified that a software release contains exactly a specified number of bugs.but u can give your past experiences like i reported 80 number of bugs for first 8 weeks and then this number is reduced to only 30-40 for next 4 weeks and after soem iterations releases contains only 10 bugs per week thats what i have done there are some approximation algorithms for identifying the approximate number of bugs in a release.

RE: How many bugs in ur project? what will the correct...
You can say that when we test project first time there are 130 bug total u found after that at second revision of testing u get 50 bug fix & remaining are open or thier are some new bug generated because of fixing of old bug.& so on when we deploy our project at that time we achiev our satifactory level that means thier is no serious bug in project that afects system or software.

RE: How many bugs in ur project? what will the correct...
I think no one can say exactly how many bugs he/she found. Actually if really u have worked on a project then tell the truth as per your experience. Trust me you will selected.ya number of bugs found are more in earlier stages which decreases with time. depending on project they may increase also.

RE: How many bugs in ur project? what will the correct...
Hi This can be answered perpectly if and only if u are a real time guy.. Pls don't mind .. u seems you are not a real time guy.. so u can say the bugs count as any.. but at the same time you can consider your project also.. i mean if your proj is a small proj and completed with in 6 months but u said the bug list as 1000 above then some times it would be a problem.. For example our project running from 2 years.. our BTS reached now 2500+.. i think u got my point..srinivasulu.B (srinivasulub1981@gmail.com)

srinivasulub1981 you are very right. Bug no. depends your project size. When r u involved with it and one last thing. It is not important 'How many bugs u ve reported?' but the imp thing is that how many bug u got fixed.

RE: How many bugs in ur project? what will the correct...

As said above you can not exactly say the number of bugs that an application has. Apart from that it also depends on various factors like...

complexity of the application

Skill level of the developers involved in that

Amount of rework involved in the project

level of standards in development maintained and checking done at the coding level etc.

If your company is product based then the chances are that you can predict the number of bugs to a certain extent.

If your company is project based then you will be developing it based on the client requirements. Here prediction is difficult.

Dhananjay

We can not predict the exact number of bugs because the system will never be stable exact number of bugs can only be predicted if there is no more requirements in the project and the project is fully stable but stil the situation is unpredictable

but it can be concluded that if the system is stable then at least system is stable upto 75

Manoj
