Broad points of variance among Priority & Severity are described below.
1. priority is associated with schedule to resolve e.g. out of many issues to be tackled, which one should be addressed first by the order of its importance or urgency.
while severity is associated with benchmark quality or adherence to standard. It reflects harshness of a quality expectation.
2. priority is largely related to Business or Marketing aspect. It is a pointer towards the importance of the bug.
while severity is related to technical aspect of the product. It reflects on how bad the bug is for the system.
3.priority refers to how soon the bug should be fixed.
while Severity refers to the seriousness of the bug on the functionality of the product. Higher effect on the functionality will lead to assignment of higher severity to the bug.
4. priority status is set based on the customer requirements.
while severity type is defined by the tester based on the written test cases and functionality.
let me explain with some examples :
if an application or a web page crashes when a remote link is clicked, in this case clicking the remote link by an user is rare but the impact of application crashing is severe, so the severity is high and the priority is low.
if the company name is misspelled in the homepage of the website then the priority is high & severity is low to fix it.
