A systematic testing process is necessary to produce a timely release with a high level of quality. The last six weeks of a release cycle are entirely devoted to testing. The general organization is described below.

At this level of the development all testing is performed by a team member other than the developer of the corresponding system or subsystem. The testing process is formalized:

  • For each system and subsystem, a Test Plan is created accordingly.
  • The test plan is made of a number of descriptions of tests to be run, each known as a Test Case Specifications (TCS). A TCS specifies a test scenario; it is not related to any particular execution of that scenario.
  • The testing process consists of running these test scenarios; the result of any such run is a Test Run Report (TRR).
