Bug Quality important than Quantity



I am writing this post today, why the Quality is important than the Quantity.
Let me explain you, there were four tester in one project oh… am I telling you story...So big no :) There were four tester in one project.Everybody was doing their job. Finding bug after developer gives module to them for testing. Everybody started hunting the bug in that module; some of succeeded to find more than one bug and some not. In that group of four tester three tester find more than one bug but only one tester succeeded  to find just one bug , after bug reporting done those who find more than one bug some of the bug got approved by test manager but some of not …but the tester who just find only one bug in that particular module he got appreciation for that bug because that bug was quality bug .See I am not saying that low and medium bug does not have any value ;even the bug which has low severity & priority same for medium, for us it is bug, even I am not saying find only just one bug.

I am saying that do not hurry to just filing  & increasing the count of bug, because some time tester find the bug which is not related with that module , sometime it’s out of scope , some bugs are duplicate. Make sure when you find bug understand scope, module everything  first..

Try that how can you increase the quality of module, project …Yeah..now some Tester will say tester should   break the software but breaking software mean what?.. You are finding loop holes, you are finding defect, why you are doing this? Because you need to take the module, product towards the quality so just not be hurry to filing bug and increasing bug count. Take more interest to finding valuable bug quality bug.
