Proceedings of the International Test and Evaluation Association 1984 Symposium (Step Session). Supplement.

Abstract

The motivation for this session of the ITEA symposium is to showcase some good examples of software testing in the DoD and to update the test community on some current activities of the DoD to improve the testing of software. The session is organized around three technical areas: (1) The Software T&E Policy and Guidance section is concerned with presenting policy level changes to DoDD 5000.3 that will improve the visibility and accountability of softwafe in major systems acquisitions. Included in this section is a presentation of a guidebook that will be issued to aid in implementing DoD policy. (2) The Software Test Management section presents two perspectives of the management of software testing during development test and operational test. (3) The Software Test Tools section describes the effectiveness of using software test tools on two DoD programs. In addition, it describes the to-be-issued DoD-StD-SDS and SOS, the new Joint Logistics Commanders Standards for software development and software quality assurance.
