Severity means Technical(i.e if the application is shuts down,when we perform one function in the Application,the severity level is high)

Priority means Bussiness(If we are going to deliver a build,in that build defect may be low severity,but the Priority is high.)

Severity only decided by the tester.Priority will be decided by the PM.

Sevierity And Priority this two words are provide different meanig in testing.but both are having inter relation with each one.

here we are taking sevierity.It repregents level of impact of bug to u r application. Eg: User not posible to Make Add Operation.

Calculated Points For Sevierity:

1.calculate no of functional area effecte dby the bug.

2.count total amount of code is effect

3.No forms effected

this things we calculate through Tracebility Matrix.Base of it effect we are giving sevierity.

Prioerity:--- It is how much Importence to solove the bug.above exaple i am not posible any operations during the bug .It is High Importency.So Priorityis goes To High to the bug.

nessary bugs solving as base on it sevierity is prierity.
