TESTING CYCLES Clause Samples

TESTING CYCLES. All Acceptance Testing for Releases 1.2, 1.2.5, 1.3 and 1.3.5 shall be completed by the Acceptance Date for that Release. Upon delivery of any Release, the Partnership will install such Release and to the extent practicable begin testing of one or more Functions in short cycles, and will report any Problems promptly to the PTS. The parties will meet weekly to agree upon a weekly schedule (the "Weekly Schedule") which lists the most important Level One Problems in the PTS and the date by which such Problems, if not resolved, may prevent the Partnership from further meaningful Acceptance Testing. The Weekly Schedule will be arranged in descending date order. The Weekly Schedule also will identify steps that each party must take to complete each Acceptance Testing cycle and the date by which such steps are scheduled to be completed. DST will address the Level One Problems in the order of priority established by the parties in the Weekly Schedule, and the parties shall each take the steps described in the Weekly Schedule in a timely manner. As DST delivers Corrective Modifications, the Corrective Modifications will be included in the Acceptance Testing procedure set forth in this Paragraph 14(b), which procedure will be repeated for such Corrective Modifications. If DST exceeds the agreed date for delivering any Corrective Modifications for a Level One Problem in any Release (as established in any Weekly Schedule), the Partnership shall be entitled to extend the agreed date for performing Acceptance Testing on the Release (or the affected portions of the Release), as established in any Weekly Schedule, by an equal number of days. The Acceptance Date for that Release, however, will not be altered unless the aggregate delays by DST in delivering Corrective Modifications for Level One Problems in such Release, with equivalent extensions of the Partnership's schedule for completing Acceptance Testing on such Release, causes the agreed date for performance of Acceptance Testing (as established in the then most recent Weekly Schedule) to conclude after the Acceptance Date for that Release.
