Defects are defects, and hence they cannot be called as good or bad.

They always create a negative impact on the system.

For example Negative is just negative, it can not be good or bad.

Defect: Of course all Low/Medium/High defects are DEFECTS.

But BAD Defect could be the one comes in higher severity which may affect the crash the system. But the one comes under typo also a defect but never crashes the system...

generally defects are classified based on their priority and severity. a defect can be treated as a bad defect when it is classified under high severity  and high priority category which means that  which highly affects the functionality of the software or product or it could  also be a show stopper where a tester  cannot proceed  with further testing without that particular bug getting fixed .such defects can be treated as bad defects.

Hi,

In testing there is no bad defect and good defect. If any defect was encountered that is a defect. so there is  no specific name for bad defect and good defect.

You could say a bad defect is one which cannot be reproduced.
