By name: hw-integration-test description: > Define and implement hardware integration tests against hardware architecture to validate that the hardware implementation correctly realizes it. Trigger: When hardware implementation is completed and hardware integration tests shall be defined and implemented.
When to Use
- After hardware implementation is completed.
- When any hardware integration test activity is required.
Critical Patterns
- Shall strictly follow the provided resources and recursively review all referenced documents required to understand the current process, inputs, outputs, rules and directly referenced work products.
- Shall align with hardware architecture (no inconsistencies).
- Shall ensure all hardware integration tests are derived from hardware architecture by adding explicit traceability between them.
- Shall define and implement the hardware integration tests against the hardware architecture to validate that the hardware implementation correctly realizes it.
- Shall use PySpice only when simulation-based validation is appropriate according to the defined process.
- Shall keep documentation DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) by adding references instead of duplicating content.
- Shall ask for approval on key hardware integration test decisions.
- Shall set produced/modified work products status to
not approved.
