severity vs priority
Bug severity refers to the level of
impact that the bug has on the application
or system while bug priority refers to the level
of urgency in the need for a fix.
• Usually the severity is defined in
terms of financial loss, damage to
environment, company's reputation and loss of life.

to fixing that defect. Has fast bug has
