Software Testing Social Network

It seems there were automated tests for components of the system.

Didn't seem to dawn on anyone the same automated tests could be used to test the system during its construction. That, or someone ordered there be minimal testing.

So when the system is started it it doesn't run very well. So far so good. But now there is the spectre of the system being destroyed during its development. Changes purportedly to "fix" the system ensure that it won't work and can't be made to work. (For office politics reasons which I don't understand it's verboten to roll back to the second last good checkpoint and simply recontinue the integration/set-to-work/acceptance - too easy I suppose).

<<Q/Should there have been automated testing of Collins during set to work of the software and its accompanying?
"field trials" simulator ?

(I don't know anything about Collins, but I know it would have needed
automated testing during set to work of the software and its accompanying "field trials" simulator.
For it to work at sea, you'd need a sea trails simulator.
For it and the simulator to work, there'd need to be automated testing.
That way, you'd have time and leisure to actually look at the system and try some of the controls.
For the automated testing to work, you'd want to have arranged chains of automated tests.
This is kind of counter intuitive. Many people would say forget about chain testing - just test each automated test and assume they work if they pass the test so you can run sequences of them without specially bothering to check.
But this is what chain testing aims to check - that you can run sequences of tests. You want the automated testing to be automated - so you check it is automated - that's what chain testing tests.)

A/ by darkclou... /I'm sure Christifer Columbus was working without a net when he went to sea . and he came back , so sometimes a hunch is enough , But there would be no guarantee , but life is not guarenteed to go the way you thought , simulations are just not always practical , life ends in death , so don't do that , the simulation would only confirm that , but you and I are living so from point A to point C life works. It's just the Z that brings on the problem that the simulation should theorize would happen , if if were if and we let it stay that way .

A/ by Froggie /Absolutely, after all this is why the project failed, its like watching domino's fall, if the first one is not steadfast then it causes a chain reaction, same goes with programs, one fault can start off a whole new set of problems unforeseen by the initial creators :)
