Abstract
The EXTEND statement permits the rapid expansion of the ATLAS vocabulary to meet the challenge of testing novel technologies. However, it has been argued that all of the standardization afforded by the very careful deliberations of the ATLAS language maintenance committee will be lost due to the EXTEND statement, because each ATLAS programmer will be free to invent his own vocabulary. A means whereby the responsiveness of EXTEND may be realized without the anarchy of complete freedom for the test program writer is described
