The ClearQuest Administrator can probably define these levels to suit the company's individual needs.

I have seen the Priority Levels defined as:
1 - High, 2 - Medium, 3 - Low.  The priority level is normally determined by the end-user's need for the fix.

I have seen the Severity Levels defined as:
1 - Critical, 2 - Serious, 3 - Moderate, 4 - Minor, 5 - Cosmetic.  The severity level is normally determined by the impact the defect has on the end-user process.  Eq:  "Can the process progress or are we stopped in our tracks?"

Severity and priority is individual to each other. There are totally 3 stages in both severity and priority. Most of the people think that If the severity is High then the priority also High. itz wrong. I am giving some examples for this

                                    Severity                 Priority
Spelling mistakes           LOW                     HIGH
Problem in Fetching
the huge data                High                     low
