Software validation and
verification
MTS software is developed using established quality practices in accordance
with the requirements detailed in the ISO 9001 standards. Because MTS-
authored software is delivered in binary format, it is not user accessible. This
software will not change over time. Many releases are written to be backwards
compatible, creating another form of verification.
The status and validity of MTS’ operating software is also checked during
system verification and routine calibration of MTS hardware. These controlled
calibration processes compare the final test results after statistical analysis
against the predicted response of the calibration standards. With these established
methods, MTS assures its customers that MTS products meet MTS’ exacting
quality standards when initially installed and will continue to perform as intended
over time.
