In this article, I have tried to create a top collection of avionics verification and validation interview questions (DO-178C / DO178C / DO-178B / DO178B) that are commonly being asked in any of the aerospace MNC. I have consulted with a couple of experienced professionals and spent many hours collecting and compiling these Top avionics verification and validation interview questions and prepared these model answers.
Q1) What is Verification?
Answer:
Verification is the process to evaluate the software products to evaluate or determine whether they meet the specified requirement.
The main objective of verification is to ensure that we are building the right software product or the software is correctly implemented as per the specification.
Q2) What is Validation?
Answer:
Validation is the process to evaluate if the software product meets the customer requirement / meets the user’s needs. In other words, It consists of the activity to provide the answer: “Are we building the right product?”
In most of the cases, the validation is normally done at the end of the software development. However, some organizations practice to execute the validation process during software development. No wonder, people do debate in the software industry as to when the validation needs to be done – at the beginning or at the end.
Q3) Can you explain the difference between verification and validation?
Q4) Can you explain the Verification Process?
Q5. Can you give an example of both verification and validation process?
Q8) What is Software Integration Testing?
Q9) What is Hardware-Software Integration Testing (HSIT)?
Q10) What is Hardware-In-Loop Testing?
Q11) What is Black-Box testing?
Q12) What is White-Box testing?
Q13) What is Boundary Value Analysis?
Q14) What is Equivalence Class Partitioning?
Q15) How can you determine Equivalence Classes?
Q16) What is Structural Testing?
