Tessy Tool Qualification Package (TQP)

The TQP is intended to help Tessy users to validate the functionality of Tessy which is relevant for safety-related development. The TQP consists of documents and test cases.
The documents provide:

  • a description of the functionality of Tessy to be validated
  • a description of the test and validation activities
  • the results of the test and validation activities

The documents are especially tailored for use with DO-178B.


The test cases are especially designed to check the tasks relevant for safety-critical projects. Would Tessy for instance determine the code coverage of a test object erroneously to 100%, then this error would probably go undetected during the further test process.
There are more than 500 test cases. They relate to the topics of

  • Code coverage
  • Data transfer
  • Report generation.

Test cases were specified using classification trees.
