You will be invited to a review. The work product to be reviewed is a description of the in-house document creation process. The aim of the description is to present the work distribution between the different roles involved in the process in a way that can be clearly understood by everyone. You will be invited to a checklist-based review. The checklist will also be sent to you. It includes the following points: i. Is the person who performs the activity clearly identified for each activity? ii. Is the entry criteria clearly defined for each activity? ii. Is the exit criteria clearly defined for each activity? v. Are the supporting roles and their scope of work clearly defined for each activity? In the following we show an excerpt of the work result to be reviewed, for which you should use the checklist above: "After checking the customer documentation for completeness and correctness, the softwarearchitect creates the system specification. Once the software architect has completed the system specification, he invites testers and verifiers to the review. A checklist describes the scope of the review. Each invited reviewer creates review comments - if necessary - and concludes the review with an official review done-comment." Which of the following statements about your review is correct? a) Point ii) of the checklist has been violated because it is not clear which condition must befulfilled in order to invite to the review. b) You notice that in addition to the tester and the verifier, the validator must also be invited.Since this item is not part of your checklist, you do not create a corresponding comment. c) Point iii) of the checklist has been violated as it is not clear what marks the review ascompleted. d) Point i) of the checklist has been violated because it is not clear who is providing thechecklist for the invitation to the review.
