Examples of work product quality criteria and where they can be found
person Author: Process Fellows
Examples of work product quality criteria:
  • Quality attributes like consistency to input, completeness, correctness, traceability, verifiability, etc.. These attributes are often included as part of review checklists to guide structured evaluations of work products.
  • The "Definition of Done" (DoD) supports as well the idea of work product quality criteria. DoD is a shared understanding within a team of what it means for a (work) product to be considered complete (remark: DoD is not only used for work products, but as well for tasks or user stories). It is a list of criteria that must be met before work can be marked as “done.”
  • Work product quality attributes are not limited to checklists. They can also be found within guidelines, standards, or best practices documents, providing broader context and ensuring consistent application across teams and processes.
