Difference b/w Error ,Defect and Bug

Here is some difference, please correct me If I'm wrong.

 

Error :  The Error is the mistakes which is mainly found while writing the code program by the developer. like syntax error, logical error etc.

 

Defects : Which is founded or traced by the client side while using or checking.

 

Bug : Bug refers where expected result is not equals to the actual result, and it's affects on the output of the program.

Tracebility Matrix

Hi Friends,
Traceability matrix is a powerful tool, not just another Excel or Word
Document.

You would have a set of Requirements to start with in any project.
Each of the requirement is checked whether it has been covered in the
Analysis Phase, Design Phase, Coding Phase, Testing phase, Bug
Tracking etc...

All this is done to make sure the set of requirements (Functional and
non-Functional) are delivered as expected by the client.

Instead of giving the field names directly, I have given a link to
another site.

What are 'Stubs' and 'Drivers' ?

Stub: A piece of code that simulates the activity of missing components.

Driver: A piece of code that passes test cases to another piece of code.

An Example: Consider an example in which we need to develop a "calculator" that converts between different units (e.g., feet to inches).
