Explanation

The IEEE 829 standard is a widely used specification for test documentation, but it is not mandatory or universal.

The standard does not require any approval from management, marketing or development for any deviation, nor does it depend on the type of project (military or consumer market). The standard also does not guarantee high quality test documentation regimes, as it only provides a general outline and format, not the actual content or quality criteria.
