Standards and quality · The defect record · Element
The defect
What was wrong, with enough detail to recognise the same thing again.
The part
What it is
Description should say what deviated from the standard rather than what the consequence was, since the consequence varies and the deviation does not.
Severity belongs here and should reflect consequence rather than how much attention the defect attracted.
The smallest level
The attributes it carries
Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.
Standard breached
Which condition was not met, which requires the standard to exist.
