Whenever the bug is reproduced, tester can send it back to the Developer and ask him to fix it again. If the developer cannot fix the bug once again and if the tester sends the bug back to developer, the third time, the tester can make the bug as Defered ie he can reject the build (.exe)

If the bug is reproducible as a tester you have to write your comments in bugtracking tool and say Retest NOT OK.

Also add necessary screen shots if applicable.

Then if the QA MGR wants you to analyze will let you know.

Your job is done for that issue.

Have a nice time.

The Role of a Tester when it is reproducible: -> Need to "reopen" the bug and provide the screen shots and steps for reproducing the bug to the development team.-> He also need to perform the regression testing on the bug after a fix. Thanks,Senthil Kumar.

The Role of the TESTER is to send the snap shot of that particular module to the developer to known where the problem is occuring. Then the tester has to conducting the testing remain modules and previously passed and failed test case. The passed test case he changed to closed. ONCE the developer fix the bug he should the  conducted the retesting once again.

Testers role it to just re-open the bug mentioning that the bug was reproduced. Developer will look into the code once again and try to solve it. He may then  do testing and if found ok, he will assign it back to the tester to verify it.

Actually the term "Reproduce" has special meaning in testing for bugs.Its the tester whose duty is to see whether the bug is reproducible or not.you should clarify the question that what he/she ask for?whether for bug reproducible?or bug occurs after fix.

The main objective of a tester is to report a bug to the developer.and it is the responsibility of the developer to clear the bug only if he feels that the reported bug is a valid one and is of high priority.Else the developer can simply close that bug.suppose if the bug is not properly cleared by the developer and if the tester finds the bug is reproducable the tester can again reopen the bug and again can assign that bug to the developer.The process continues until the bug is properly cleared by the developer.This process is known as bug life cycle

Do you meanWhat is the role of a tester if a bug is reproducible?or do you meanWhat is the role of a tester if a bug is duplicable?If the bug is reproducible, the developer has to fix it and send it back to the tester to verify it. If the verification fails, the tester will assign the bug back to the developer so that he can fix it. If he cannot then the status changes to "Cannot be Fixed"However, if the bug is a duplicate bug (that means, it has been found and reported earlier) then the tester need not report it again. All he has to do is re-open the bug (if already fixed and closed) and assign it to the concerned developer. The developer can then fix it.
