They are used to define the scope of testing, guide test design, and provide a basis for measuring quality and progress. Testtargets are typically derived from requirements, user stories, or acceptance criteria, and are linked to traceability matrices to ensure coverage.
Common examples include functional correctness of a feature, performance thresholds (response time, throughput), reliability benchmarks (uptime,
