Test and Evaluation Documents

Project documents that lay out the tests, inspections, and analyses used to verify the product meets the quality goals defined in the quality management plan.

Key Points

  • Specify how deliverables will be tested and evaluated against quality objectives from the quality management plan.
  • Often include test plans, procedures, test cases, acceptance criteria, data collection methods, and expected results.
  • Provide objective evidence for Control Quality and support acceptance decisions in Validate Scope.
  • Should be traceable to requirements and quality metrics, and kept under version control as the project evolves.

Example

A software project has a quality objective that page loads must be under 2 seconds for 95% of transactions. The test and evaluation documents include a performance test plan, test scripts, data sets, and pass/fail thresholds. Test results are recorded and compared to the objective to confirm whether the product meets the target.
