What is severity and Priority,gave me a example of High
Severity and Low Priority and Vice Versa.

Answer Posted / purni

Severity is defined by the tester. Severity defines the how
severe is the defect like critical, high severity, medium
and low severity.
Priority is defined by the developers. Priority defines how
soon the defect need to be fixed.
If the main functionality of the application is not working
as intended then while testing we assign it as high
severity. For ex. In the banking application after
completing the transaction we have click submit if it
doesn't work properly it is high severity defect.
Low priority is if there are any cosmic errors like spelling
mistake. First they have to first pay attention to the high
severity and then low priority defect.
