RE: What is meant by Bug Seeding?
Bug seeding is the intentional addition of defects to a program and is intended to determine the extent and rate that defects are discovered throughout the testing process. For example if a hundred defects are deliberately seeded evenly throughout a program and only 75 percent of them are discovered by the test team then test management can assume 25 percent of the original defects have likely not be discovered as well. This may also indicate to management what modules did not get enough attention during the test run. Of course once this exercise is complete the code is restored to eliminate the seeded defects.
