RE: Effort Varience in QA

It's just calculating the extra time spend on testing in our project my client asked the estimates for all types of requirements then we started our testing if QA time is exceeded then we should give a explanation as why it takes the extra time if it's a valid reason there will be no problem other wise problem for entire QA team.
