What is the difference between the Definition of Done and Acceptance Criteria? Though the question might sound very simple to some, it still exists, appears now and then on many platforms, and at times is a point of discussion.

What is Acceptance Criteria?
The concept of Acceptance Criteria comes along with User Stories from Extreme Programming. Typically, a User Story is a short 3 line description expressing a requirement from the customer's perspective.

What is the Definition of Done?
Definition of Done helps determine the "DONENESS" of product increment that we develop during an iteration or a sprint as a team. It helps us make explicit the quality of our product increment.

The Definition of Done and acceptance criteria are similar in some aspects but serve different purposes:

- Similarities:

1. Both define conditions for work to be considered complete
2. They promote alignment on quality standards
3. They enable validation through testing
4. They drive collaboration in defining done criteria
5. They create transparency into progress

- Differences:

1. The Definition of Done is overarching, applying to all work
2. Acceptance criteria are specific to individual user stories
3. The Definition of Done is defined upfront and stable
4. Acceptance criteria are created just in time per story
5. The Definition of Done focuses on high-level quality standards
6. Acceptance criteria define detailed functional behaviors

The definition of done and acceptance criteria are different, but they are used for complementary purposes. The Definition of Done provides overarching standards for completeness and quality that apply broadly across all work. Acceptance criteria offer detailed specifications that are unique to each user story.
