Verifying That the Tool Satisfies Tool Operational Requirements

After you document the Tool Operational Requirements, verify that the tool satisfies the Tool Operational Requirements. To do this, complete the following steps for each tool that you plan to qualify:

1. Locate the PDF version of the Test Cases, Procedures, and Results (TCPR) document provided for the tool in the DO Qualification Kit product, and review the test cases and procedures described in the document for applicability to your project.

   The Test Cases, Procedures, and Results document provides the following information:

   • Introduction

   • Description of test cases and procedures

   • Traceability matrix between operational requirements and test cases and procedures

   • Procedure for executing the test cases and procedures

   • Test results

2. Locate and make a copy of the .rtf Test Cases, Procedures, and Results document template file for the tool.

3. Edit the test cases and procedures sections of the template, as necessary for your application, and finalize the document. For example, you might need to modify content in the Expected Result column of the table in the traceability matrix.

4. Locate and configure the test cases and procedures in your project configuration management system.

5. Execute the test cases and procedures in the installed and configured environment. For more information, see "Executing the Test Cases and Procedures" in the Test Cases, Procedures, and Results document for the verification tool you are qualifying.

6. Review the test results. If the results are not correct:

   • Verify that correct versions of all required MathWorks software are installed correctly and being used.

   • Check whether known bug reports related to this product exist on The MathWorks Web site (www.mathworks.com).

   • Contact MathWorks support for assistance.

   • Document a limitation of the tool usage in your Tool Accomplishments Summary if you cannot resolve the test failure.

7. Configure the test results in your project configuration management system.

After you complete this procedure, document and provide the results to certification authorities, as described in Provide Certification Authorities with Tool Qualification Results.
