7. Software Test Plan Assurance and Procedures

7.1. Testing and Coverage

Testing to verify that requirements are implemented is a critical part of the high integrity processes. Similarly, measuring and reporting source and decision path coverage of source code is critical.

Needed improvements to the RTEMS testing infrastructure should be done as part of the open project. Similarly, improvements in RTEMS coverage reporting should be done as part of the open project. Both of these capabilities are part of the RTEMS Tester toolset.

Assuming that a requirements focused test suite is added to the open RTEMS, tools will be needed to assist in verifying that requirements are “fully tested.” A fully tested requirement is one which is implemented and tested with associated logical tracing. Tools automating this analysis and generating reporting and alerts will be a critical part of ensuring the master technical data does not bit rot.
