    1) I would ask the developer to identify precisely what bugs I missed.
    2) I would the review the list of bugs in the build notes and compare this with the suite of test cases that I had run during the test cycle. 
    3) If this is not the release build, then I would add test cases for the missed bugs in the suite of test cases for the next test iteration
    4) If this is the release candidate, then I would immediately raise this issue with management and let them decide how to proceed based on the bugs' priority and severity levels.
