Article summary

When reporting a Defect during test execution, the Defect details are automatically populated along with the relevant screenshot.
You can edit, replace, or delete the screenshot if needed.

Defect Lifecycle

Defects are in Open status by default and are usually reported by testers. The developer can then resolve them and, finally, the tester can close them after retesting.
