Abstract :
Databases can be used to improve efficiency and accuracy during Test Program Set (TPS) development. Key elements of the development process such as requirements analysis, establishing a fault universe, failure modes, standardization, Operational Test Program Set (OTPS) groupings, fault detection and isolation requirements, hardware design, and TPS performance, can easily be controlled and monitored using a Rapid Application Development (RAD) environment. This paper describes the guidelines, using RAD, to establish and design a group of Units Under Test (UUTs) resulting in improvements in quality, efficiency, and accuracy that are incorporated into each TPS
