This paper aims at large software projects testing. On the one hand, because testing defects are numerous, the defect information record should be standard. On the other hand, defects should be traced timely and thoroughly, because after repeated modification and retesting, defect testing becomes difficult to be queried and counted. So that defects can be managed systematically, registered normally and counted automatically, in this way to provide prompt, effective and direct information for the test management and to improve the quality and efficiency of software testing. The key aspect is to determine the requirement of the defect management tool.This paper focuses on a process of defect management which makes the defect management tool simple, flexible, suitable for the software testing and easy to learn, use and customize. Combined with CMM standard and software testing practice, the defeat management tool can define testing format, defects level, defect type, defect origin, defect handling proposal, unify the definition in maintaining dictionary, and standardize the information transformed in the process of defects handling; it can make process definition for defects life circle, control state transition in the process of defects handling; according to his need, testing manager can query defects based on different conditions, find out defects' state distribution of different level, and get to know the work efficiency of testing staff in a period of time according to the results counted automatically; it can also compare the abilities of different testing formats, and testing record sheet can be derived in the format of excel, the results of which will be regarded as part of the report.The testing record sheet is accomplished based on a predefined Excel template. This template is customized according to the practical need in the process of testing, which has abundant information: testing results, modified results, retesting results, and other detailed information of defects. The statistical tables can be easily got using statistical function of Excel; and vivid defect trend line and defect distributing chart can be got using chart function of Excel. It helps test manager get to know the information of testing schedule, testing quality and product quality, etc. The future optimization mainly involves conducting defect management combing test case; getting process capability baseline of defect density through defect density statistics; improving software testing capability level by continuously improving software testing process.
