Structural design considerations

Designating engineering assemblages
Each structural component identified in the integration hierarchy should be evalu-
ated to determine if the component needs additional software drivers or stubs to be 
tested. The need for additional test drivers or stubs needs to be identified and incor-
porated into the scope of software implementation planning. This is recorded within 
the physical architecture as an engineering assemblage that is associated with the 
structural component that needs the expanded implementation content to support 
software integration and testing. The engineering assemblage must identify the test 
drivers and stubs, and an engineering specification must be developed to express the 
requirements for the additional software implementation tasks.
