Question 1

What is the difference between verification and validation?

Accepted Answer

Verification asks whether the software conforms to its specifications, usually through reviews without running the code. Validation asks whether the finished software actually meets the user's real needs, typically by executing the software and observing its behavior.

Question 2

What is the difference between severity and priority in bug tracking?

Accepted Answer

Severity measures the technical impact of a bug on the system, regardless of business context. Priority measures how urgently it needs to be fixed, based on business impact and timing — the two don't always match.
