If a bug has high severity then usually that is treated as high priority,then why do priority given..

Answer / geetha

High severity bugs affects the end users ....testers tests
an application with the users point of view, hence it is
given as high severity.High priority is given to the bugs
which affects the production.Project managers assign a high
priority based on production point of view.

If a bug has high severity then usually that is treated as high priority,then why do priority given..

Answer / subramaniam dharmarajan

High severity is used to categorize whether a defect is
severe or not. Its based on the functionality and how the
defect or issue impacts the working of the functionality.
High priority in turn is used to prioritize the various
defects raised, which in turn denotes the priority in which
it needs to be fixed to be released to production. I would
say, there can be low severity issue, that can be of high
priority, if it needs to be fixed immediately.

If a bug has high severity then usually that is treated as high priority,then why do priority given..

Answer / rishi samlal

The answer has been given already, this is the summary:
Severity refers to impact (importance)
Priority refers to urgency (when).
A defect can be Severity high but has no Urgency, meaning
we have to solve it but not immediately.
A defect can have low Severity but can have high Priority,
meaning it has low impact but we still want to have it
solved fast, for instance, as it may have dependencies or
if the developer is going for a holiday.
Those are basically the outer constraints.
A tester is usually more focussed on impact (what does bug
do to the application), Manager usually more interested in
when can/sshould it be solved.
