 +====== Sample Definition of Done ======
 +
 +There is no such thing as one Definition of Done that applies everywhere. Your environment, the maturity of your practice, the product you are working, your customer's viewpoint, and the tools you use will all play a signficant potential part in your definition. But to give you an idea, here are some items that you might have if you were developing a product:
 +
 +  * Code produced (all ‘to do’ items in code completed)
 +  * Code commented, checked in and run against trunk in source control
 +  * Peer reviewed (or produced with pair programming) and meeting development standards
 +  * Builds without errors
 +  * Unit tests written and passing
 +  * Deployed to system test environment and passed system tests
 +  * Passed UAT (User Acceptance Testing) and signed off by Product Owner as meeting requirements
 +  * Any build, deployment, or configuration changes are implemented, documented, and communicated
 +  * Relevant documentation/diagrams produced and/or updated
 +  * Remaining hours for task set to zero and task closed
 +  * No known remaining work because we simply did not track it
 +  * For each user story no additional bugs added to list of defects
 +  * Code checked-out of source control is checked-in in better shape

 Sometimes you will encounter the situation where you would like to improve the Definition of Done, but as yet you cannot as you don't have the capability. For example, perhaps your Team has never done automated testing before and now would like to do it. In this case your could create a Feature or Story that defined the work to figure our how to do work (automated testing in this case), and the acceptance criteria might include something like "Must become part of our Definition of Done". Sometimes you will encounter the situation where you would like to improve the Definition of Done, but as yet you cannot as you don't have the capability.
