Can anyone give me the example of High Priority and Low severity defect. Please dont give me answer..

Answer / krishna

Seviority - if the whole logic of the software is affected (wat the client requested).
priority - a particular function or a particular module is affected .

lets take a example of gmail .
its main work is to send email and check mail.

low seviority - ther is an option named TRASH in it . if it doesnt open , its low seviority as it is not gonna affect the main work .
High Priority - in COMPOSE if the email content box (one particular module) is not accepting any alphabets , its a High Priority .

High seviority - if the INBOX or COMPOSE doesnt work ...
Low Priority - if u r not able to change the colour of the texts we write , if DELETE in TRASH is not working , etc .....

I hope this will give u idea ... correct me if im wrong ..:)
