Software Bug Cost Graph. The chart below shows how the defect removal depends on the product lifetime. As you can see the cost of removing the same defect can vary from 50 to 1500 according to the time of its detection.
Sometimes the cost of a software glitch cant be measured in dollars. Not the cost of finding and fixing the bug but the cost of the bug itself. The costs go up as the bug moves through the SDLC.
The comparison includes client-server application distributed and hosted systems.
In which BTW is IMO the best reference guide on CPU operation costs this phenomenon is represented by each operation having two associated numbers one is latency which is always a whole number of cycles and another is throughputIt should be noted however that in real-world when going beyond order of magnitude estimates exact timing will depend a lot on the nature of your program. This article is a comparison of issue tracking systems that are notable including bug tracking systems help desk and service desk issue tracking systems as well as asset management systems. The comparison includes client-server application distributed and hosted systems. It chart and graphs feature is very useful to see the progress of the bugs.
