In Developer view it is a high priority defect & in tester
view it is a low severity defect what is that how to define
with an example

Answer Posted / jagadishkumar552

Severity: The impact that a given defect has on the system.
For example: If an application or web page crashes when a remote link is clicked, in this case clicking the remote link by an user is rare but the impact of application crashing is severe. So the Severity is HIGH(as it effects the s/w) but priority is LOW(Bcoz the destroying s/w link will be pressd by user very RARELY).
Priority: This priority status is set by the tester to the developer mentioning the time frame to fix the defect.If high priority is mentioned then the developer has to fix it at the earliest. The priority status is set based on the customer requirements.
Eg: If the company name is misspelled in the home page of the website, then the priority is high and severity is low to fix it.
