The test requirements model (TeRM) communicating test information throughout the product life cycle
L.A. Shombert, D.C. Davis, E. Bukata · 2003
Test information that is necessary to properly verify product functionality and performance and isolate faults is collected throughout the product life cycle. Unfortunately, this information is seldom captured in a format that can be reused at subsequent life-cycle stages. This paper describes a formal information-based methodology, called the Test Requirements Model (TeRM) that can be shown to facilitate the transfer of test-related product information between various stages of the life cycle and to higher-level assemblies in a system (including embedded cores in integrated circuits.).
