In software testing Risks are the possible problems that might endanger the objectives of the project stakeholders. It is the possibility of a negative or undesirable outcome. A risk is something that has not happened yet and it may never happen; it is a potential problem.

We can classify risks into following categories:

Project risk (factors relating to the way the work is carried out, i.e. the test project)
