what is entry and exit criteria?..

Answer / mahesh

From my understanding:
Entry Criteria:

•Approved design and requirement documents.
•Test plan must be reviewed and signed off by TestLead/
Manager.
•All developed code must be unit tested. Unit and Link
testing must be completed and signed off by development
team.
•All human resources must be assigned and available with
the necessary Test bed.
•Application must be installed and configured similar to
the customer environment independently (segregated from
development environment) to start test execution.
•Test cases for Functional testing are created and reviewed.

Exit Criterai:

•All high priority defects must be fixed and re-tested.
•If any medium or low-priority defects are outstanding –
Project Manager must sign off the implementation risk as
acceptable.
•Test cases execution with test results.
•Bug Report.
•Test Report and Release approved by the Test Manager.
•Software Release Checklist

what is entry and exit criteria?..

Answer / manish

Entry and exit criteria are a must for the success of any
project. If you do not know where to start and where to
finish then your goals are not clear. By defining exit and
entry criteria you define your boundaries. For instance, you
can define entry criteria that the customer should provide
the requirement document or acceptance plan. If this entry
criteria is not met then you will not start the project. On
the other end, you can also define exit criteria for your
project. For instance, one of the common exit criteria in
projects is that the customer has successfully executed the
acceptance test plan.
