Introduction to FSW Req./Test Context Diagrams


Overview

The FSW is mandated to provide a set of functions in a manner that meets a set of requirements. It plans to do so by creating some number of tasks (or coordinated sets of tasks), running under VxWorks. A set of tests will provide verification that this has been done.

The requirement/test context diagrams, located on requirement and test pages, are intended to provide useful context for the current item:

  • On requirement pages, the diagram depicts the initial requirement, any directly-related tests, and any requirements which are directly related to those tests. Finally, it depicts any tasks which are directly related to a depicted requirement. The initial requirement and any directly related items are highlighted and the connecting links are emboldened.

  • On test pages, the diagram depicts the initial test, any directly-related requirements, and any tasks or tests which are directly related to those requirements. The initial test and any directly related requirements are highlighted and the connecting links are emboldened.
