In simple and layman terms ----
Entry Criteria is the minimum eligibility to start the testing process on the build.
Exit criteria is the conditions at which the testing process can be stopped

Hi Pooja!

So if one has an understanding of basic ( the basic that u have replied ) one can easily proceed on Kiran's line
of action.
