This first Specific Goal looks to have clearly demonstrated that the test function, in conjunction with other members of the project team, clearly analyse and document their perceived test environment and data requirements for all test levels planned for the project, the constraints (cost etc.) that may be present and also with consideration of identified risks.
SP 1.2 Develop the test environment requirements
