Defect is a flaw that can cause a very harmful situation in different phases or stages of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Defect Prevention (DP) is basically a process of simply identifying defects, and their root causes, and taking appropriate measures to prevent them from re-occurrence in further processes and the future. It also ensures that defects get resolved at an early stage rather than a later stage. Root cause analysis is one of the best methods to identify and resolve defects or errors.
