Define completion clearly
Agree what a feature must do, how it will be tested, and what remains outside scope. Clear acceptance criteria help the team review delivery without relying on subjective impressions. Use the findings to update the brief for the next stage.
Use business-owned distribution accounts and document approval, updates, monitoring, and support. Store release needs planning beyond the code. Keep essential access separate from an individual employee's login.
Integration boundaries
Document APIs, authentication, failure handling, and data ownership. Test slow responses and unavailable external systems, not just the successful path. Separate essential work from optional additions in the proposal.
Test representative devices, permissions, interrupted connections, and failed inputs. Define acceptance checks with the people who will use the product. Test the important customer action before publishing a change.
