Testability addresses the extent to which a weapon system or subsystem supports fault detection and isolation in a confident, timely and cost-effective manner. The incorporation of adequate testability, including built-in test, requires early and systematic management attention to testability requirements, design and measurements. Several studies have identified testability as a major contributor to improved system readiness and reduced development costs and support costs. Design for Testability is being adopted by more and more companies in the commercial sector as a cost-effective way of doing business. Yet the military, prior to MIL-STD-2165, has lacked a systematic, uniform method of invoking Design for Testability requirements in their contracts. MIL-STD-2165, 'Testability Program for Electronic Systems and Equipments' was issued on 26 January 1985. This standard may be applied to all electronics developments within the Department of Defense. This paper discusses the role of the new military standard as a management tool for the development of testable avionics systems and equipments.
