Computer Aided Fire Dispatch System. Module Integration Test Plan. Public Safety Information System

摘要

This report is one in a series covering analysis, conceptualization, design, development, and implementation of a public safety subsystem at the City of Long Beach, Calif. In this report, the module integration test plan (MITP) for the computer - aided fire dispatch system is described. Since the entire public safety subsystem at Long Beach is subdivided into various segments that are referred to as 'components,' the report refers to a component integration test plan (CITP) rather than a module integration test plan. The purpose, scope, and use of the CITP are described, as well as the performance criteria upon which the CITP is based and against which the component's performance is measured. The actual procedures that are used to administer and monitor the test are outlined, and the criteria used to evaluate the transition to and from an emergency backup system are described. The resources required to successfully administer a valid test are mentioned (hardware, software, personnel, facilities). Also included is a chart which illustrates the proposed time schedule for accomplishing the test. A sample program test selected from one of the component programs is appended.
