  2. Experience: one must deploy resources that have experience in testing and dealing with the software product. This shall help understanding the product
  3. Deliverable must be well defined such as testing plan and cases.
  4. Tools must be used to track defects and find solutions for the test cases generated. With the process attaining maturity the test cases may require specialized tools.
  5. Metrics must be developed to track the improvements in the existing versions of the software product.
  6. Environment for testing shall increase the value of testing and maturity of the testing process.
