Please feel free to use these lists as part of
your system specifications or testing processes. We welcome your contributions of new
lists and improvements for existing ones. All contributed lists will be posted and made
available to visitors to this site.

There are a number of objectives in presenting
these lists:

• The use of checklists should enable us to be
  consistent and thorough in testing.
• Hopefully, it will be unnecessary to try and remember
  all of the appropriate tests that may be required.
• Checklists serve to improve communications between
  customers and system builders.
• Each of these lists is presented as a starting point
  and the hope is that through your contributions the lists will get better.

Please note that these checklists were first posted in the late 1990’s. They remain a
popular part of our web site.
