Abstract
The time and effort required to correct a software defect that enter the product in its development phase increase as the detection of the defect gets delayed and becomes later in the process, causing the increase of development cost. Investigating the cause of the defect and the reasons for the delay of its detection will lead to finding improvements for the development process. We would like to present a method of process improvement which focuses on the analysis of those software defects that weren't timely detected.
