Explanation

A product risk is a risk that affects the quality or timeliness of the software product being developed or tested. Product risks are related to the requirements, design, implementation, verification, and maintenance of the software product. The risk of the sub-contractor failing to meet his commitment is a product risk, as it could cause a delay in the completion of the testing required for the current cycle, which in turn could affect the release date of the product. The release date is an important aspect of the product quality, as it reflects the customer satisfaction and the market competitiveness of the product.
