Answer / girish
Severity:Means how severe the bug is and to what extent its
affecting the application
Priority:When we want the developer to fix the bug
E.g:if P1 is the priority given to a bug then the developer
should fix the bug at the earliest
------------------------------------------------------------
Bug:Found by tested before the application goes into
production
Defect:Found by customer after the application goes into
production
------------------------------------------------------------

Answer / minu mishra
Basically Bug and Defect are same. Every client has there
own way of naming or calling terminologies. I have recently
heard SIR (software incident Report), Anomaly is also being
used for the same term bug or defect, so it is basically
same no difference. A tester also finds bug or Defect which
could be basically software error/ test script error/
requirement error. This means any software related issue
which doesn’t match with expected result. Customer also
finds bug or defect when they use their product those
defects gets fixed according to the need in next release or
build. If a customer finds show stopper defect(s) or Bug(s)
then it is not tested and approved properly as expected by
the requirement.
