Quality Testing Services: Defects Classification

Quality testing services are used to check whether the application under development meets its functional requirements and help to increase the effectiveness of your business processes. The services are focused on reducing the number of software defects.

Classification of defects (bugs) regarding detecting their severity, i.e. according to their impact on the performance of the software application:

Blocker.  A defect that causes the software application to work incorrectly.  As a result, it is impossible to run the application and use its functions. It interferes with testing workflow and development process.  

Critical. Critical defect leads to the crash of some basic functionality of the application. Also, it can cause a significant departure from business logic, usage of default parameters in functions, loss of user data, etc. When this defect occurs your order will not be at all suitable for use. The critical error is also when the app performs inconsistently.

By the way, performance testing companies are always ready to help you develop performance testing scenarios through the implementation of good practices using a complete set of performance testing capabilities.

Major. This type of defect causes departure from business logic and app performance problems. It does not lead to the crash but makes it difficult for some of the application’s components to perform their functions, such as navigation menus problems.

Minor. This defect leads to minimal loss of functionality of the app under test, but not all the functions work as expected. This type of defect is not fatal and can be regarded just as the lack of help for certain functions such as an error in build application.   

Trivial. A bug that does not have the impact on functionality or performance of the application but it can be detected visually, and this is a misspelled text.  

If you want your app to work for its users on all devices and browsers that matter to them, you are recommended to resort to web application testing services.

Classification of defects regarding sequence of their correction:

High. The bug is to be corrected as soon as possible because it adversely affects the application’s performance.

Medium. This defect must be corrected but it does not have an adverse impact on the application’s performance, and the correction can be postponed depending on the availability of higher priority defects.
