Test Logs

Test logs should demonstrate that all defined test cases have been performed.

Test Results

Results of testing may be included in the Logs, or may be separately documented. Problems raised will be documented in Problem Reports.

Prototypes/Proof-of-Concept

These provide a number of interested parties with a ÔsnapshotÕ of the project at a particular stage of development.

Prototype Evaluation Report

Reports on the evaluation of prototypes by the client and user representatives should be prepared, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the prototype.

Invoices

Invoices are submitted according to the billing plan to request payment for work performed.

Project Status Report

Record of the actual status of project against plan. Milestones, costs, resource usage, time, and quality status are compared against the plan. Changes to risk status and strategies are identified.

Corrective Action Log

Identifies the initial problem, issue, or defect, and the owner for the completion of the defined action is recorded. A series of actions to fix the problem are identified, and the open date and target closure date are recorded. A status indicator is used to aid exception reporting.

Results of reviews of the product and associated activities at specified periods are recorded.

Risk Measures

Established measures for each risk or risk class are recorded and an indicator to measure changes in the risk status is defined.
