Process Component: Test Discipline

Description

The Test Discipline process component provides a view into the underlying process elements that relate to the Test Discipline configured for the software project.

This discipline view aligns with a somewhat more traditional view of process definition adopted in waterfall process lifecycles and as such can be useful to those transitioning from waterfall to iterative.

Dependencies

Depends on the Assessment, Management and Implementation process components.
