Regarding last weeks
minutes. No issues.
Don and Ernie have
been having on-going discussions regarding the syntax and data model. Should the
.4 group overall review/participate in this - starting in the next
call?
Regarding the
priority ranking - what do people feel about this? It could be interpretted in
two ways - as a requirement for a language feature or as a requirement that this
use-case by implementable. We may consider just dropping the priority rankings
to just two: "required" and "future want".
We did a walk-though
in the various topics:
Priority:
Assumptions/Prerequistes:
Preconditions:
Task/Scenario:
-Don: what about limits/parameters? Dave: These may be prepackaged in
the TestMethod. Also note that the 2nd portion of the continuity test (using
the parameter system), provides two advantages - it may be more accurate, and
two, measurement data may need to be recorded. Ernie: a continuity test is
probably the most difficult test to represent across different testers. Ernie:
would this be represented by two primitives (test methods)? or a single one?
Ernie: would like to have a model of a tester's capabilities. Dave: but for
our work all we need to cover is information available and needed for the
flow.Ernie: there are various ways of implementing this, depending on what
assumptions I can make about the underlying tester (such as whether there is a
continuity failure counter). Dave: this use case is not prescribing one way or
another. Jim: I feel the fail counters ought to be part of the bin
construct.
Next call is on
Tuesday the 3rd. We'll continue with this use-case. Maybe followed by some of
the syntax the Don and Ernie.
