Answer / ranjith nair
Severity->Application point of view
Priority->User point of view
-------------------------------------------
Some bugs might have high proirity,but according to
application point of view,that bugs might be of low
priority.
Ex:GUI bugs->Font,Alignment,spacing...
If a bug is severity means ,that bug will affect the entire
application.Can be a show stopper

Answer / vimal raina
Rightly said sevierty is impact and priority decides how
soon it should be fixed...
genrally when sevierty is high priroty is also high but
i will like to give example where severity is low and
priority is high.
If the title bar of any website is wrriten incorrectly it
doesnt make any difference to the funtionality (low
sevierty)of the website but it has a high priority to be
rectified.
