The developer must construct an acceptance test specification in the DD phase and document it in the SWP (SW17). The specification should be based on the acceptance test plan produced in the UR phase. This specification should define the acceptance test:
• designs (SW19); * cases (SVV20):
• procedures (SVV21).
Guidance on writing the SWP/AT is provided in ESA PSS-05-10, Guide to Software Verification and Validation.
