Question: Bug Fixing Priority
Answer: Which of these is the most important one to fix first, and why?
a. The word "BlackBerry" is misspelled on the startup screen of the application.
b. The application always rejects a user's first attempt to launch the application; subsequent attempts are successful.
c. The application crashes and brings down the database server when it tries to add a record that contains an uncommon string, "123abc456xyz789".

The third bug that is pulling down the database server is the most important to fix, the second bug that the application does not start in first go should be fixed next. Then the bug regarding the spellings should be fixed.
The bug that is pulling down the server, is most important because server is also being used for other transactions of the same application. The server is being used to for other applications as well. Pulling down of the server means deadlocking of so many applications. Even though Blackberry is mis-spelled, it is still understandable. However, if the application is not logging in on first attempt, the application is causing waste of effort on every time of logging leading to loss of time everytime the application is logged in for further testing. |
