The Continuity Registration process passes through several phases. The third phase of this process is the Implementation, where it will be defined the continuity plan, planning, and test strategy. This functionality allows registering the Continuity Test Strategy.

## Before getting started

- [x] Make sure there is a defined service in a Portfolio and Catalog Management
   process.

   policy and continuity project defined

   vital functions, business impact analysis, risk evaluation, strategy, plan, and
   continuity organizational planning.

   risk category.
