Definition: - The first thing any organization need to do is define one unique definition

for testing within organization. So that every one is on the same mind set.

How to achieve: - How are we going to achieve our objective?. Is there going to be a

testing committee, will there be compulsory test plans which needs to be executed etc etc.

Evaluate: - After testing is implemented in project how do we evaluate the same. Are we

going to derive metrics of defect per phase, per programmer etc etc. Finally it’s

important to let know every one how testing has added value to the project.

Standards : - Finally what are the standards we want to achieve by testing. For instance
