How we will assign the severity n priority levels to the
bug?
Answer Posted / anant chaudhary
Severity and priority are the two terms which shows the
bug/issue behavior. which is mention in the issue tracking
system.
Severity and priority is change as per the company standards.
In my company Severity and priority display as fallows.
Severity :- Blocker,High,Medium,Low,Trivial.
Priority :- 5,4,3,4 and 1 ( '5' is highest priority )
I am trying to explain the how to assign the Severity and
priority of bug with the help of ATM software example.
1) Low Severity and Low priority bug.
a) Go to the ATM center and perform as fallows.
b) Login in the ATM with your password.
c) After successful login try to withdraw money with
printed statement.
But machine withdraw money and not printed the statement.
(So this bug assign as a Low Severity and Low priority bug.)
2) High Severity and Low priority bug.
a) Go to the ATM center and perform as fallows.
b) Login in the ATM with your password.
c) After successful login try to check balance and try to
withdraw money.
But ATM machine not display balance and able to withdraw
money. (So this bug assign as a High Severity and Low
priority bug.)
3) Low Severity and High priority bug.
a) Go to the ATM center and perform as fallows.
b) Login in the ATM with your password.
c) After successful login try to check balance and try to
withdraw money.
But ATM machine display balance and not able to withdraw
money. (So this bug assign as a Low Severity and High
priority bug.)
4) High Severity and High priority bug.
a) Go to the ATM center and perform as fallows.
b) Login in the ATM with your password.
c) After successful login try to check balance and try to
withdraw money.
But ATM machine get crash every time after successful login.
(So this bug assign as a High Severity and High priority bug.)
This way you can assign the Severity and priority to the bug.
