- Testing starts right from the requirements phase and continues till the end of SDLC
- Objective of starting early: Requirements related defects caught later in the SDLC result in higher cost to fix the defect.
Stop Testing – When? - Test cases executed with acceptable percentage of defects
- Project Deadlines e.g. release deadlines, testing deadlines
- Test budget has run out
- Coverage of code, functionality or requirements reaches to specific point.
- Bug rate falls below acceptable level
- Beta and Alpha testing has been completed
