Which of the following is NOT a factor in deciding “When to stop testing”?
-
Code coverage
-
Cost
-
Resource availability
-
Defect Density
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Testing exit criteria are based on measurable completion indicators like code coverage thresholds, defect density trends, and cost-benefit analysis. Resource availability is a constraint that affects HOW testing is performed, not a decision criterion for WHEN to stop. The stop decision depends on whether test objectives have been met, not on whether resources remain available.
