When we find a defect we use the defect tab of the test director to report the bug to the developers. Do we need the defect description from the test director for any other purpose, other than reporting it to the developers.

The Defect tab of the Test director helps not only to report the bug to the developers, but also it shows the entire status of the defect that has been locked in the Test Director. Once the Defect is raised by the QA Tester it will notified to the Triage People, where they will decide whether to accept or reject the defect. Once it is accepted, then it will be assigned to the developer for fixing. Once they fix the defect the status will be changed to fixed and will be reassigned to the Tester. The tester will retest / validate the defect and change the status either to closed once the defect is resolved or will change to "Reopen" if still the defect prevails. The cycle is continue till the status of the defect is closed.

while we report the defect, we give the information like defect description, steps to reproduce, etc.


this information will be helpfull for developer/PL to reproduce the defect, and after fixing the defect we testers again execute the same steps to reproduce to make sure defect is fixed
