ormance requirements, shall be traced through architectural design, detailed design, coding, testing, software integration, software qualification testing, system integration, and system qualification testing. • Clauses 6.4.2 and 6.5.2 - requirements, including performance requirements, shall be verified and validated throughout the software life cycle. IEEE Std 1012-1998 is a standard for software verification and validation (V&V). Detailed criteria for the V&V tasks are given in IEEE Std 1012-1998, Table 1. This table states in part: • Clause 5.4.2, “Requirements V&V Activity,” (2) “Software Requirements Evaluation” - performance requirements (including timing, sizing, speed, capacity, accuracy, precision, safety and security) shall be evaluated for correctness, completeness, consistency and testability. • Clause 5.4.2, “Requirements V&V Activity,” (5) “System V&V Test Plan Generation and Validation” - system test plans shall include test designs, cases, procedures and results for, among other requirements, system performance requirements, performance at boundaries (such as data and interfaces), and under-stress conditions. BTP 7-21-5 Revision 6 – August 2016 • Clause 5.4.3, “Design V&V Activity,” (2) “Software Design Evaluation” - design elements shall be evaluated to ensure that performance requirements are correctly and completely included. • Clause 5.4.3, “Design V&V Activity,” (5) “Component V&V Test Plan Generation and Validation” - testing shall be planned so as to validate timing criteria, performance at boundaries and interfaces, and performance under stress conditions. • Clause 5.4.4, “Implementation V&V Activity,” (2) “Source Code and Source Code Evaluation Documentation” - source code elements shall be evaluated to ensure that performance requirements are correctly and completely included. • Clause 5.4.4, “Implementation V&V Activity,” (7) “Component V&V Test Execution and Validation” -
