Thanks sridharrganesan for your answer but kindly tell me the reason why
answer of questions Q1, Q2, Q4, Q5, Q10 and Q15 are both Functionality and GUI with details.

Hi,

A Defect will both be Functionality and GUI Defect if the functional requirement is operational on par with the GUI Functionality. ie., the Functional requirement will be satisfied only if the Gui functionality performs properly. Following are the reasons below for the questions you asked in details:

1. Alert message req. On a menu such as apply, delete, submit for invalid values, special characters and if fields are blank.

Answer: Both Functionality and GUI Defect. Since display of message box is associated with GUI Functionality and also as per the functionality specification the alert message should be displayed for invalid values or blank values.

4. Alert message req. On a menu when giving duplicate values.

Answer: Both Functionality and GUI Defect. Since display of message box is associated with GUI Functionality and also as per the functionality specification the alert message should be displayed for duplicate values.

5. Alert message req. On a menu when entering values by changing case (uppercase and lowercase) of the string

Answer: Both Functionality and GUI Defect. Since display of message box is associated with GUI Functionality and also as per the functionality specification the alert message should be displayed for wrong casing.

10. On selecting more than one records, command button does not gets enabled.

Answer: Functionality and GUI Defect. Since Enabling or disabling of Command Button is one of the Gui funcitonality and also as per the functionality specification the when more records are selected command button has to be enabled

15. Maximize/Minimize Button on a Page is not working and disabled.

Answer: GUI Defect. You can either Maximize or minimize a button only when working with the GUI. Also, the resizing of a button will not have any concern with the functionality. Hence this defect is a GUI Defect alone.
