Preference should be given for High priority bug or Critical severity bug?..

Answer / saff

tricky question

in real time severity is decided by testing team and
priority is decided by dev tem

so if dev team given severity bug as low priority while
fixing they will consider priority colum only
and fix bug later after high priority bug

so it is up to the dev team when they should fix the bug

but if it is a show stopper they will fix it right then
