Test Sign-Off is the formal approval process for completed testing activities before moving to the next development phase or release stage. It indicates that testing has met predefined criteria and that stakeholders agree on the results.
Key Steps:
- Review of completed tests against requirements
- Assessment of defects and resolutions
- Confirmation of acceptance criteria met
- Documentation of sign-off approval
- Communication with stakeholders about the next steps
Test sign-off is crucial for ensuring quality before deployment.
