IEEE/ISO/IEC 14515-1:2000 /Amd.1:2003

New IEEE Standard - Active.
This standard defines the test method specifications for IEEE Std 1003.b-1993 (based on the document corresponding to the merger of IEEE Std 1003.1-1990 and IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993). The test method specifications consist of assertions to be tested and related test procedures.As an amendment to IEEE Std 1003.1-1990, this standard is structured to amend those portions of IEEE Std 2003.1-1992 (the test method specification for IEEE Std 1003.1-1990) that correspond to the amended parts of IEEE Std 1003.1-1990. This standard is aimed primarily at providers of test methods for IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993 and at implementors of IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993.

This standard defines the test method specifications for measuring conformance of an implementation to POSIX.1b {3}2). Assertions are the primary test method specification for measuring conformance to POSIX.1b {3}. Conformance to POSIX.1b {3} requires conformance to IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993 as it has been modified by POSIX.1b {3}. Therefore, the test method specifications for POSIX.1b {3} assume that the test method specifications of IEEE Std 2003.1-1992 {4} apply, except as modified by this standard.
