Process/Prepare Release Test WithoutTitle

The Prepare Release Test process contains [#PrepRelTestDescription Description], [#PrepRelTestPurpose Purpose], [#PrepRelTestResponsible Responsible], [#PrepRelTestMethod Method], [#PrepRelTestTime Time], [#PrepRelTestInput Input] and [#PrepRelTestOutput Output].

the overall preparation is continuously defined and implemented
setting the exact successcriteria together with the developers for each implementation task
preparing the release test description, data and platform for the releasetest

a reliable releasetest for all changes made in the actual iteration
a releasetest ready for execution just after the last iteration task is finished

During the implementation of the iteration following task need to be done or verified by a proactive Testcoordinator:

The creation of the Wiki test release page happens soon after the start of the iteration.
The Test Coordinator will work together with the developer to decide who is responsible for implementing the releasetest
Before the implementation of a task the deleloper defines how the release test can be implemented. Unit tests may be sufficient testing so that a proper release test is not necessary.
- Accepted by the test coordinator
The tests covers the need for each iteration. By development iterations - not production releases - the test focus is only on the code areas, that may be affected by the changes.
That documentation will be verified.
That each release test is checked as far as possible before the start of the release test
That there is clean up of the releasetest page for old test cases and and bug test items.
That the time for preparation and execution of the releasetest is fair.
That the platform has sufficient capacity (disk space platforms ..)
That each test ready for execution is spread out to different testpeople

After iteration has been started and tasks distributed by [:Process_Role/Project Leader:project leader]
Before [:Process/Code_Freeze:code freeze] within the iteration

Component owners are responsible for testdata and sanity checks and for providing the test coordinator with a list of bugs fixes and a sanity check descriptions
