Software Defect Reduction Top 10 list

One : Software defects are easier and less expensive to fix in an earlier stage than a later stage.

Finding and fixing a software problem after delivery is often 100 times more expensive than finding and fixing it during the design phase

In other words, the sooner you correct  a bug in a software development life cycle the better it is in terms of reducing cost and effort.

There are many software practices by which defects are likely to be found in earlier stages.

- Through requirement analysis and design
- Early verification and validation
- Upfront prototyping and simulation to avoid costly downstream fixes.
