- First, use a careful, attentive approach to execute your tests. You never know when you are going to find a problem. If you are pounding on the keyboard while gossiping with office mates or thinking about a movie you just saw, you might miss few of the strange behaviors.

However, there are cases where defects are reported against requirements and design specifications, user and operator guides and tests also.
