What is a Defect? John Spacey, updated on
A defect is a non-conformance to requirements, standards or designs. It is also common for shortcomings, errors, failures and imperfections to be perceived as defects even if they aren't contrary to documented requirements. From a pragmatic point of view, anything that authoritative stakeholders perceive as a defect is a defect.
