Severities

1 - Critical
Cannot continue with testing as there has been a major loss of functi­onality that has brought down all applic­ation modules. (E.g. applic­ation has crashed and cannot be restarted, or user is prevented from logging into the applic­ation due to login defect)
2 - Major
Major loss of functi­ona­lity, but testing can continue on other applic­ation modules or in other parts of the applic­ation. (E.g. an applic­ation module experi­ences a major loss of functi­onality but other modules are still working, or a major loss of applic­ation functi­onality has occurred but there are workar­ounds)
3 - Minor
Applic­ation functi­onality either does not work or does not work as expected.
4 - Low
Issue with a low impact to applic­ation functi­onality or a GUI Defect.
