Acceptance criteria
Acceptance criteria (hereinafter, the Criteria) is the specification for a set of conditions that the product must meet in order to satisfy the customer. In Agile methodology, the product owner writes statements from the customer's point of view that explain how a user story or feature should work. In order for the story or feature to be accepted it needs to pass the Criteria; otherwise, it fails.
