Software Testing and QA Outsourcing
We are a testing outsourcing services company, we ensure that all your digital solutions meet your requirements as well as the highest quality standards.
Bugs are unavoidable. Even the best quality assurance (QA) specialists can’t guarantee their absence in the products they release to market, although they can do a thorough review of the systems, performance, functionality, and other aspects of a piece of software they’re testing.
Of course, it’s critical to catch as many bugs as possible prior to releasing a product. And an important, ongoing stage in this process is classifying and prioritizing these defects.
We employ the top 1% of talent in the QA space in order to perform an exhaustive evaluation of the products we build at BairesDev. Classification and prioritization is just one part of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) but an essential one at that.
There are a number of reasons why this step is critical in the SDLC. Perhaps the most important is to ensure that the team focuses on and addresses the most important bugs first — the ones that are most likely to adversely affect the user’s experience with the product. If you don’t take this important step — or rather, series of steps — you could waste time devoting too much attention to minor issues.
Building a system for this purpose also allows you to improve organization and make the development and QA processes go more smoothly. Organization is key in creating robust software because there are so many moving parts.
Furthermore, such a system will guide the efforts of your team. They’ll have a better understanding of where to direct their efforts, allowing them to better address important defects before they wreak havoc on the product and implement new features.
There are 2 established ways of classifying and prioritizing bugs: ranking by priority and ranking by severity.
Most development companies use a grading system to rank bugs in these categories, using either a 1-5 numerical scale or identifying the issue as very high priority, high priority, medium priority, low priority, or very low priority. Priority references the order in which a bug should be addressed. In other words, how many — if any — bugs should be fixed before this one? Generally speaking, the rankings correlate as follows:

The severity of a bug refers to the scope of the problem and the extent to which the defect will impact the overall system. Like priority, issues are ranked as follow:
