What is a show stopper?

Answer Posted / rafi

Show stopper is critical bug severity 1 and we cannot test
further lets take an small example

if suppose anyone want to check their mail using yahoo or
gmail etc the moment to enter your user id and password,
the application(website)should open to check all the mails,
but inthis case you cannot see the application it will
throw the error. so the user cannot go further that type of
error is call show stopper
