Bug Severity: How seriously the bug affects the
functionality of the application

Ex: Application Crashes, Server Errors

Bug Priority: How fast the bug must be fixed.

Ex: Spelling mistake in the logo of the application Coz,
the customer may redirect to some other website

Answer / swapn

if u enter the the label text with wrong data in gui screen
then its a high seveority but we treat as low priority,

Answer / jay

Hi,

High severity is also called as FATAL, Then the severity is
1 for this.

Whenever some part of the application is under development
and the build is released to the testing dept,the test
engineers will treat the missed part as FATAL issue but the
development lead will give least priority for that defect.

I hope you would understand by above example. :)

cheers,
Jay

Answer / girishkumar

PRASHANTH ANSWER IS CORRECT,

EX: IN TESTER POINT OF VIEW SPELLING MISTAKE IN APPLICATION
LOGO IS NOT SEVER BUT IN CUSTOMER POINT OF VIEW IT IS SEVER
BECAUSE IT MAY CONFUSE THE CUSTOMER, BECAUSE OF THAT REASON
WE WILL GIVE HIGH SEVERITY(IT HAS TO FIX),
BUT WE WILL GIVE LOW PRIORITY (NEED NOT TO FIX IT IMMEDIATELY).

Answer / pravin

Seriousness of the bugs is called severity where as which
bug will fix first is called priority...
