Evaluation of Computer Software in an Operational Environment.

Abstract

This paper examines general procedures for testing military realtime operational software from the user's perspective. A summary of industrial software testing is given with an evaluation of its applicability to the military's requirement for operational testing. The operational test environment is examined to determine the extent of verification, validation or certification of computer software that is possible given the constraints of this environment.
