Answer / jacob
Hai Guys I am Jacob a Test Engineer who also happens to be
the admin of Bugzilla in my company
Severity and Priority are tow important points in weighing a bug
Bugzilla has many default parameters for both.. Basically in
most of the companies we use those only so I ll stick to that
Severity
This field describes the impact of a bug.
Blocker Blocks development and/or testing work
Critical crashes, loss of data, severe memory leak
Major major loss of function
Normal regular issue, some loss of functionality under
specific circumstances
Minor minor loss of function, or other problem where easy
workaround is present
Trivial cosmetic problem like misspelled words or
misaligned text
Enhancement Request for enhancement
Priority
Priority
This field describes the importance and order in which a bug
should be fixed. This field is utilized by the
programmers/engineers to prioritize their work to be done.
The available priorities range from
P1 (most important) to P5 (least important).
Feel free to punch back with any clarifications
