What is a Show Stopper?

Answer Posted / manish

Severity ratings vary from organization to organization and
project to project. But most organizations have four kinds
of severity rating as shown.

Severity 1 (showstoppers): These kinds of defects do not
allow the application to move ahead. So they are also called
showstopper defects.
Severity 2 (application continues with severe defects):
Application continues working with these types of defects,
but they can have high implications, later, which can be
more difficult to remove.
Severity 3 (application continues with unexpected results):
In this scenario the application continues but with unexpected
results.
Severity 4 (suggestions): Defects with these severities are
suggestions given by the customer to make the application
better. These kinds of defects have the least priority and
are considered at the end of the project or during the
maintenance stage of the project.
