1. Definition of ready stands for enty criteria, definition of done - exit criteria.
2. Aviation and medicine industries apply process-compliant (or standard-compliant) approach, which involves analyzing, designing, and implementing tests based on external rules and standardizations.
3. Ideally, yes. Test cases should be ordered and run accordingly to their priority levels, executing the test cases with the highest priority first. But if a higher-priority test case depends on a lower-priority test case, the lower-priority test case should be run first.

1. Entry criteria and exit criteria.
2. Process-compliant approach.
3. Yes.

My answers for the quiz are:

1. The definition of ready, or entry criteria, specify the conditions which allows the test activity to begin. The definition of done, or exit criteria, specify the conditions that must be achieved to declare a test activity completed.
2. Aviation and medicine, as standard reliant industries, often make use of the process-compliant (standard-compliant) test strategy.
3. Test cases should be preferably ordered to run according to their priority levels, executing the ones with the highest priority first. However when the test cases or features under test have dependencies, a higher priority test case has to be executed after a lower priority test case, which it is reliant on.

Quiz answers are:

1. Definition of ready is entry criteria which include conditions for starting test activity. Definition of done is exit criteria which include conditions under which test activity is considered completed.
2. Process-compliant (or standard-compliant) strategy must be used in standard reliant industries, such as aviation and medicine, because this approach is based on industry-specific standards.
3. Test case with high priority may have technical or logical dependence on cases with lower priority. So, these lower priority cases should be executed first.

[РоманК-чт]

Answers for the quiz:
1. Entry and exit criteria
2. Process-compliant (or standard-compliant)
3. No. This may not be wise if the test cases or the features being tested have dependencies. If a test case with a higher priority is reliant on a test case with a lower priority, the lower priority test case must be executed first.
