• The process of deploying software updates to fix defects

• The duration for which a software defect exists in a system

• The time taken to develop a feature that replaces a defective one

• The speed at which a defect can be resolved

• The impact of the defect on the system's functionality

• The ease with which a defect can be detected

In software testing, what is "Defect Clustering'?

• Clustering defects based on their type

• The phenomenon where a small number of modules contain most of the defects

• Grouping defects by their severity

• Assigning defects to different teams based on expertise

What does a DEFECT LEAKAGE mean in the context of software testing?

• The process of removing defects

• The initial discovery of defects
