Answer / srikanth bc
when the tester identifies a defect, he assigns a severity to it.
severity is nothing but "how severe the bug is".
based on that the tester gives the severity.
ex: if its a show stopper bug the tester gives severity as fatal,if any edit box,radio button or any combo box is not working then he gives the severity as major,if there are any sort of spelling mistakes or graphical issues, then he gives it as minor.These are minor defects because they wont effect the functionality.
Few defects which appear in real time are :
-fatal defects,show stopper defects
ex:when we enter the url,and that particular page not getting displayed
-working of the functionality of application WRT to requirements
-text over lapping
-edit boxes, radio buttons,combo boxes not working accordingly
-navigational issues
-video or image not getting uploaded
and many more........

Extra defects
A requirement incorporated into the product that wasn’t given by the end client. This is usually a discrepancy from the specification, but it also may be characteristic requested by the user of the product.
Nevertheless, it is supposed a defect because it’s a discrepancy from the existing requirements.

Missing defects
