During the stabilization phase for recently deployed software, an end user reports a bug that is compromising data integrity. Which of the following tools will the project manager MOST likely use?
A defect log is used in software development when defects (or bugs) are found during testing and after release. (pg 327 - "The Official CompTIA Project+ Guide (PK0-005)"
ANSWER A:
When you see “MOST likely use” in the context of PMBOK®:
"Issue log" is the recognized, broad repository for ANYTHING requiring resolution.
"Defect log" is not a PMBOK® artifact, even though it’s common in software development.
"Change log" tracks the status of change requests once they’ve been formally submitted and accepted or rejected.
"Task board" (or Kanban board) can be used in Agile or hybrid environments, but it’s more of a visual management tool for tasks and workflow—less about formally registering a problem that requires escalation or resolution in a PMBOK® sense.
Hence, from the PMI/PMBOK® perspective, “Issue log” is the correct place to record any new bug or data‐integrity problem that arises.
TheFai that is because there is no such log. We have trolls in this forum and it is very concerning, because we are actually trying to obtain information to pass and move on.

I cannot find the verbiage Defect Log anywhere in my Sybex book. Issue Log is mentioned repeatedly however, and is used for this exact case.
