Answer Posted / akhil kumar

Hi everybody what I found is there is a little clarification
needed for simple concept of severity and priority.severity
shows the impact on the application which can be high or low
like system crash will have high severity.while priority
denotes how much it is important to fix the bug.so if system
crashes once in say 150 times then it will have low priority.

so examples for these are below:-

1.High severity & low priority :- If a application crashes
on very rare occasions and changes are very low of
crashing.so severity will be high but priority will be low.

2.High severity & high priority:- if a application crashes
very frequently and duly visible or first time the
application came from development team to the testing
department.

3.Low severity & low priority:- it is merely just a
enhancement bug which the client wishes like changing the
background colour of user interface,also like adding a
button like 'back' to navigate previous page.

4.Low severity & high priority:- In this case if the name of
the company on its home page is misspelt will be considered.

So to find that in which category the bug comes always
remember one thing that Low severity bugs are mostly related
to GUIs and high severity bugs always related to things like
system crash.severity is always technical while priority is
for business purpose.
