Defect status

·  Rejected: If the defect is not considered as a genuine defect by the developer then it is marked as ‘Rejected’ by the developer.

·  Duplicate: If the developer finds the defect as same as any other defect or if the concept of the defect matches with any other defect then the status of the defect is changed to ‘Duplicate’ by the developer.

·  Deferred: If the developer feels that the defect is not of very important priority and it can get fixed in the next releases or so in such a case, he can change the status of the defect as ‘Deferred’.
