Test & Evaluation
ETSI test and evaluation services include test planning, test procedure development (scripting, particularly to testable requirements), test monitoring and conduct, test results analysis, and after-test reporting. The company’s testing approach begins with requirements-based test planning and progresses through test conduct and post-test analysis.
In providing test and evaluation services, ETSI recognizes that testing is a quality assurance activity. Therefore, test plans and procedures are carefully reviewed for requirements traceability, demonstration of major system functions, consistency with the overall project/program plan, the identification of test resources and tools, and whether stress testing, white box, or black box testing will be utilized.
ETSI testing expertise has been applied to such major programs as the Air Defense Communications Platform, Tactical Air Operations Module, and the Expeditionary Air Defense System.
