==== Describe a set of **‘Tests for Success’** that you will perform on your product to see if your solution was successful (Think of each of the design specs you must meet and how you can test them individually!): ==== ====** - This project can be classified as a succes if we meet all of our design specifications. To be successful, we must have a complete project burned onto a cd with the wiki, storyboard, plan, works cited, three places to exercise, and the nutrition plan to turn in on the due date. we can meet these specifications by setting checkpoints in the project and making sure all of the papers are of high sophistication and value. we can make sure our video is good because we can ask other people to watch and take their advice on how to make it better. **====
