Subsystem Test

Why

See if the deployment of your subsystems complies with expectations.

How

The subsystems are tested on total system compliance. Observe subsystem behaviour under relevant conditions either in conditioned situations or in simulation. Feed the subsystem with relevant and valid data, and elaborate on the subsystem’s operability. Remember: garbage in; garbage out.

Ingredients

• Real world and validated input data.

• A conditioned environment.

• A subsystem prototype of the subsystem.

• Testing skills.

Practice

Products are produced during product development, for example in a phase of the V-cycle. Avoid end-phase incompatibility, for example when constructing the end product. Subsystem tests allow tuning or adapting the production and prevent failure.
