Traditional Water fall model will not allow to do the testing and the coding process in parallel. V - model in the SDLC will allow the process to have testing and coding as a parallel activity which enables the changes to occur more dynamic.

one example of low severity and high priority bug is regarding the size of an amount field in any ecommerce application , if we see that generally size of a field comes under field level validations (ex if its name ; 5 char field accepting only 4 characters is not a big issue)and a low severity one, but when its seen from the application point of view if its regarding the total, it should be accurate to penny , so its of high priority-low severity type

and if you are testing an application which depends on other application which is not your company's, like if its regarding any shop and bank related sort, and you are testing any application for that shop , u found a critical bug in the bank appl, then in that case if you find a bug whose severity is high, but your company is not going to do anything with that, so its a high severity - low priority bug

correct me if i am wrong

and regarding v model, time consumption is less as both development and testing teams will be working parallaly, verification of each phase will be done before you enter into the second phase which reduces the risk of going back when any fault is found in the previous phases

High priority and Low severity

If you are testing any web site and its logo is not coming then it is low severity bug because it is not affecting any functionality but its Priority is high because if the logo of website is not coming; it put a bad impact on customer. 

Sometimes for online transaction(like ATM) if you are not getting txn completed sucessfuly message then its severity is low but priority is high.

High severity and Low priority

 If you are testing any website and ur website is using 3rd party tool as search engine (E.g. Google)is not working then its severity is high but priority is low because if engine is not working its a headach of third party.

Hi all,

just think what is water fall? water always flows in one direction i.e. up to down. in the same way in testing also after coding we'll do testing. No enhancements will be take place in build. we'll go for this model when the requirements are unchangeble and clear. we have to resolve those bugs in next cycle means next release. that's it.

 where as in V model to decrease the bugs we'll start our work right from getting BRS and other docs. we'll refine the docs by reviews untill we get the correct approach on project. after reviews we'll prepare test cases simultaneously coding done by developers. after coding they'll do unit and integratin testing and they'll release build to testing team. we test the application by executing the test cases. if we find bugs we'll send the bugs to development team. they'll resolve the bugs and release another build. in this way v model continues untill 100% testing completes.

Generally MNC's follow this V model. as it takes much time but assurance will play a big role as per the client.

cheers

High Priority and Low Severity :1)Spelling mistakes2)Display image in right place3)S/W running on unexpected platformHigh Severity and Low Priority:1)Application crashing for certain no. of user working on that.

Why Your Company choose V model for testing? And what is the main difference between V model and waterfall model?

The companies prefer V model for testing is for ease of adaptability and time consumption i.e the testing activity will be started parallely.

The difference between V model and waterfall model is as follows.

V model is the model for Testing process (STLC)
Waterfall model is the model for Software Development (SDLC).
