Verification & Validation Module

The Verifications and Validations (V&V) module is a new addition (since May 2024) to Requirements and Systems Portal designed to enhance the efficiency of managing verification activities within the platform. This module consolidates the functionality previously spread across the requirements and test modules, offering a centralized location for all verification and validation efforts.

Key Features:

• Centralized Management: The V&V module provides a single interface for creating, organizing, and tracking verification activities, simplifying the process and reducing the need to navigate multiple modules.

• Integrated Approach: By merging aspects of the requirements and test modules, the V&V module facilitates a more cohesive workflow, allowing for a seamless transition between defining requirements and executing verifications.

• Verification and Validation (V&V): A comprehensive framework for guiding and documenting the engineering cycle, ensuring quality, reliability, and compliance of systems or Blocks.

• V&V Activity: A structured task designed to verify or validate a system or Blocks, comprising various steps and iterations known as "runs."

• V&V Item: A link between a specific requirement/Block and its corresponding verification or validation activity, ensuring traceability and alignment within the engineering lifecycle.

• Steps: Individual stages within an activity or run, breaking down the process into smaller, manageable Blocks with specific purposes.

• Runs: Instances or iterations of an activity, representing the execution of the activity and providing a record of the process, results, and observations.

• Methods: Specific approaches or techniques employed within activities to carry out the verification and validation processes.
