2.8. Proposed Schedule of Milestones

Most of my test plans contain a schedule for the test project's major milestones. You can extra ct these from the work-breakdown-structure, which I discussed in Chapter 1. I focus on the high-level milestones and deliverables that are visible to management. Table 2.3 provides an example of such a schedule.
