DO-178B Process Objectives: DO-178C recognizes that to ensure correctness, control and confidence in software, functional safety must be addressed systematically throughout the software life cycle.
DO-178B and DO-178C are crucial standards for developing airborne software systems.
In section 6.4.2 DO-178C states that requirements-based test selection should include both “normal
range test cases and robustness (abnormal range) test cases”.
DO-178C, Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification is the primary standard used to approve all commercial software-based aerospace and military/defense systems.
