Give an example of High sevierity and low priority..

Answer / lokesh chauhan

Severity describes the seriousness of the bug.

Due to a bug a total module may not be accessed.For example

bug1: if "Application"button is clicked then it should
open the application form page. If the button click does
not work then it can be described as severity is "high".

bug2: If the click of "Application" button opens the
application page but the details needs to be displayed in
the current page are not displayed then it can be described
as severity is "medium".

bug3: If the caption of the "Application" button is
misspelled as "Aplication" then it can be described as
severity is "low"

Priority describes what is the bug which needs to be fixed
at the earliest. This is normally decided by the PM.

For example in the above case if the "application module"
need not be submitted immediately then bug1 and bug3 may be
given "high" priority where as bug2 may be given
priority "low"

In the above case if the "application module" has to be
given immediately then all the three bugs bug1,bug2,bug3
are given "high" priority.

Answer / kiran

You need to decide how severe the bug affects application
and priority decides based on the specifications.

Example: Think that you have drop down for selection of
reports in your applictaion, where the report name is
Mispelled. Based on name only you can select and view the
status of particular repot. In this case Its high severity
from testing perspective asper Rquirements but as per
development spelling mistake is a low priority.

Hope this helps you.

Answer / swaroopa

High severity means, becuase of that defect user is unable
to do any operation.

Low priority, this scenario occurs rarely or among 50000
users only one user tries that situation

Let me explain you clearly

The system is hanging/crashing if user is trying to access
a help page, but that help page will be opened by users
rarely.

This means that:
Bug affacting the application functionality sevierly but
the it has less priority to fix it.

any screen.

page,but if we click on browser back button again it is
navigating to previously viewed page and not allowing to do
any operations.
