5. Testing & Validation
- Define test scenarios and acceptance criteria aligned to documented requirements.
- Support and coordinate user acceptance testing (UAT).
- Validate that delivered functionality aligns with documented requirements and business objectives.
- Capture feedback and defects and ensure they are properly documented and prioritized.
