ABSTRACT

The system test plan, as the system test requirement is sometimes called, will affect not only the way in which the real system will be tested but also the design of the system. One of the principal reasons for including the system test requirement as part of the statement SDR of the problem of the design of the system is to force consideration in Phase 1 of the "testability" of system requirements. The System Requirements Document expresses the system requirements in mathematical terms. The system test requirements specified by NTR are called null test requirements because ZREAL plays no role in the estimation of the figures of merit; the test estimates are the values provided by ISD. The system developers, during the system development Phase 4, will actually acquire or construct each of the system components enumerated in the vector VSCR of system components.
