The acceptance test planning stage involves deciding on several key aspects. Which of the following are typically covered in an acceptance test plan? Select all that apply.
Correct Answer
(1) Resources, time, and budget for acceptance testing
(2) The order in which system features will be tested
(3) Required coverage of the requirements
(4) Risks to the testing process such as system crashes or inadequate performance
(5) How identified risks can be mitigated
Explanation
The acceptance test plan covers: resources, time, and budget; a testing schedule; required requirements coverage; the order in which features are tested; and risks to the testing process (crashes, inadequate performance) plus mitigation strategies. A complete bug list is not a planning document - it would be the output of running the tests.
