When do you stop testing?

Answer Posted / dillip palai

Some of the common factors and constraints that should be
considered when decided on when to stop testing are:
1. Testing budget of the project. Or when the cost of
continued testing does not justify the project cost.
2. Resources available and their skills.
3. Project deadline and test completion deadline.
4. Critical or Key Test cases successfully completed.
Certain test cases even if they fail may not be show stoppers.
5. Functional coverage, code coverage, meeting the client
requirements to certain point.
6. Defect rates fall below certain specified level & High
priority bugs are resolved.
7. Project progresses from Alpha, to beta and so on.
