23⟩ Explain what is bug life cycle?

☛ When a tester finds a bug .The bug is assigned with NEW or OPEN status.

☛ The bug is assigned to development project manager who will analyze the bug .He will check whether it is a valid defect. If it is not valid bug is rejected, now status is REJECTED.

☛ If not, next the defect is checked whether it is in scope. When bug is not part of the current release .Such defects are POSTPONED

☛ Now, Tester checks whether similar defect was raised earlier. If yes defect is assigned a status DUPLICATE

☛ When bug is assigned to developer. During this stage bug is assigned a status IN-PROGRESS

☛ Once code is fixed. Defect is assigned with FIXED status.

39⟩ Explain about a time that you disagreed with management on a new policy or procedure. How did you handle the situation?

FFS results indicated that we had to shut one of our transfer lines. This was not within Code standards due to internal metal loss. The company man did not agree on this as this would be a loss in production. I have reported this to the terminal manager and my line manager and gave them the results of the inspection. We then decided as a team to prepare for the repair works and shut the line.

While performing a routine inspection on a storage tank, I have noticed a bottom leak. According to Code the tank must be isolated, cleaned and repaired. The leak was slight and we as a team decided to build a secondary containment berm around the tank and monitor the leak on daily basis.
