An Evaluation of the Software through Pictures/T Tool (StP/T) for the Software Support Activity (SSA).

Abstract

This study was conducted by the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCADWAR) to evaluate the Interactive Development Environments (IDE) software product known as the T tool. The evaluation was initiated at the request of NAVAIRSYSCOM AIR-54661 to determine the applicability of these tools to the SSA environment. The conduct of the evaluation spanned the time period from March 1994 through September 1994. A "Plan for Testing the T tool for SSA" was presented to and approved by AIR-54661 in April, 1994. The T tool is a specification based test case generation tool. This means that a specification which describes the inputs and outputs of a process or module is the only basis for producing the test cases. T was previously evaluated by Christine Youngblut of the Institute for Defense Analysis (item h in Applicable Documents) who reported that StP/T is currently being used by various government organizations including the Naval Avionics Center, the Jet Propulsion Laboratories, Naval Coastal Systems Center and US. Army Forts Monmouth and Sill.
