TestPhase

ok

Software Development Life Cycle has different phases.

i.e if we take simple SDLC: Waterfall Model

1. Requiremnt Gathering

v
2.Requiremnt Analysis
|
|
v
3.Coding
|
|
v
4.Unit Testing
|
|
v
5.Integration
|
|
v
6.Integration Testing
|
|
v
7.System Testing
|
|
v
8.Maaintanance

The above eight phases are called SDLC Phases.
Ok,Now Testing is a Phase Of SDLC.
If Tester is Purely Black box tester he can do System
Integration testing , System Testing and Maintanance
testing.

Entry Criteria: The basis for stasrting the testing of an
application or product.

For example:Before starting System testing Development team
should comple the Unit testing.Then they will depoly the
build in the test server.
Then the testing people will do the Sanity or Smoke testing
on the Newly deployed Build of application or product.
If the Application or Product passes the Sanity or Smoke
testing we will accept the build for testing.
This is the Entry criteia.I.e We will accept Build when
only is is stable and have no show stoppers.

Exit Criteria: This is the criteiawhen we will
stop/conclude testing .

For example we encounter a show stopper and it is not
allowing us to test further then we will stop testing.
or If we met the Specified quality standards then we will
stop testing>

Entry and Exit criteria's are components of Test Plan.

Example:
4.4.1 Entry Criteria

*.Unit testing has to be conducted and should have
passed.
* Test results have to be shared with the QC team.
* Known issues should be communicated to the QC
team.

4.4.2 Exit Criteria
*.Execution of system test cases without any issues.
*.Discussion with PM for acceptance in case
of issues.
*.Acceptance and release approval from QC.
