Complete Agile SDLC Documentation for a Personal Expense Dashboard Web Application
Closure criteria, final handover, and lifecycle traceability
Project closure
The initial development project closes after version 1.0 is accepted and transferred to operational maintenance. Closure does not end the product lifecycle; future changes continue through new Agile sprints.
Closure criteria
- Version 1.0 production deployment completed successfully.
- Product Owner accepts the approved release scope.
- Project Sponsor confirms business objectives for the initial release are satisfied.
- No unresolved Severity 1 or Severity 2 release defects remain.
- Monitoring and alerting are operational.
- Backup and recovery procedures are documented.
- Support ownership is assigned.
- Architecture and deployment documentation are current.
- Known deferred features and defects are recorded in the backlog.
- Final release notes and handover documents are complete.
Handover package
- PED-SDLC-001 lifecycle documentation.
- Approved product backlog and release history.
- Functional and non-functional requirements.
- User stories and acceptance criteria.
- Requirements traceability matrix.
- Architecture and data-model documentation.
- Risk register and architecture decision records.
- Test cases and release evidence.
- Deployment and rollback procedures.
- Operations and support runbook.
- Known issues and future backlog.
