When to Stop Testing?..

Answer / tztexas

When you meet your Exit Criteria that was in the Test Plan
you wrote before testing began. AND this test plan would
have been approved by key stake holders.

If you cannot meet your Exit Criteria, it is the Key stake
holders who make the decision to stop testing. When this
happens they should be aware that they are now responsible
for the quality of the system that was not tested.
