Answer / vikram
Priority - Priority is the order in which developer has to
fix the bug.
Severity - Severity is how seroisly the bug is impacting
the application.
Eg.
High Priority & High Severity: A show stopper error which
occurs on the basic funcationality of the application .
(Eg. A site maintaing the student details, on saving record
if it, doesn't allow to save the record then this is high
priority and high severity bug.)
High Priority & Low Severity: The spell mistakes that
happens on the cover page or headin or title of an
application.
High Severity & Low Priority: The application generates a
show stopper or system error, (for which there is no
workaround) but on click of link which is rarely used by
the end user.
Low Priority and Low Severity: Any cosmetic or spell issues
which is with in a paragraph or in the report (Not on cover
page, heading, title).

Catastrophic defect that causes total failure of the
software or unrecoverable data loss. There is no work
around. In general, a severity 1 defect would prevent the
product from being released. Example: defects that cause the
system to crash, corrupt data files, or completely disrupt
service.

Severity impacts the business process. It of following
types:
Critical->defect having high problem
Major -> Impacts the main feature of the product
Normal -> Impact some feature of the product
Cosmetic->Miner mistake like spelling mistake in brand name.
Priority -> When a bug is impacted the system.
It is of 4 types (P1, P2, P3, P4) Where P1 is the high

Answer / banesh
Hi guys..
Lemme clear ur Doubt as per my knowledge.
In simple sentence,Severity is defined by the priority.
For example:
If Two persons are suffering with fever one is with 103 degrees and other is with 101 degress. Generally doctor needs to attend 103 degress patient first. but if we set priority like for 103 degrees (p2)(medium) and 101 degrees as (p1)(high). then doctor should attend 101 degree patient irrespective of severity, hence i conclude severity is defined by priority. hope provided example is helpful.Thank you ,Banesh
