Iteration which starts prior the current one ends...

How would you define in RTC an iteration which starts prior the current one ends, ie. in a Waterfall process, the Testing phase can start prior the development phase ends.

Do you have any best practice on this use case?
Thanks a lot.

There currently is no constraint on the begin/end times of any iteration.
The only constraint is that at most one iteration (and its parent iterations) can be "current" in a given timeline at a given time.

Nice to read you...
This is the concern of my customer...
What would you recommend:
- stay a step ahead and consider, in my sample, the "testing phase" as the current iteration or
- stay a step back and consider the "development phase" as the current iteration until the development is done?
Thanks
Kind regards
