give me some example for high severity and low priority
defect?

Answer Posted / selvagnapathi

High severity and Low priority:

Consider a card payment system which would be designed to
gives responses like

Accept
Decline
Refer

while swiping the cards.

On using valid cards all the functionalities are working as
expected except the REFER.

In this case testing cannot be in progress for the test
case related to REfer. Hence the severity for this defect
should be High as Refer functionality is not working.

But priority would be low(P3) as other functionalities like
Accept and decline are wroking and end to end payment
functionalities from business perspective could be tested
using the Accept Response.Hence development team can take
some time to give a solution for this issue

Hence defect related to this type could be categorized as
Low priority and high severity.

You must test a trouble report where the problem cannot be reproduced. You tried using various test data files and mutations from the data files the customer sent along with the trouble report. The software does not fail the way it did at the customer's site.
