Scope

To carry out the work, different meetings were conducted to define the framework and to build the necessary assets to support verification activities.

The methodological approach considered automated aspects using tools to verify them. Along with this, manual tests were carried out with the objective of discovering scenarios that would not have been detected when using tools.

Lastly, the methodology was implemented using a pilot project to evaluate how appropriate it was.

Results
