The approach for peer reviews (static testing) is aligned and coordinated with the approach for dynamic testing.
The purpose of Advanced Reviews, building on the practices of the TMMi Level 3 Process Area Peer Reviews, is to measure product quality early in the life cycle and to enhance the test strategy and test approach by aligning peer reviews (static testing) with dynamic testing.
Note that Advanced Reviews does not imply that the type of reviews conducted should be of a more complex type than those covered by the Peer Reviews Process Area.
This Specific Goal is looking to the organisation to demonstrate that The approach for peer reviews (static testing) is aligned and coordinated with the approach for dynamic testing.
Early in the life cycle, product quality is measured against set criteria by means of peer reviews. Peer review criteria, especially quantitative exit criteria, are defined based on the project’s (interim) product quality goals.
Examples of work products include the following:
SP 1.1 Relate work products to items and features to be tested
SP 1.2 Define a co-ordinated test approach
Example Sub-practices and work products
Specific Practice 1.1 Relate work products to items and features to be tested
For the item and features to be tested, as identified by the test approach, the related work products are identified.
