Maria Grazia Pia Geant4 LowE Workshop 30-31/5/2002 ow Energy e.m. Workshop CERN, May 2002

Maria Grazia Pia Geant4 LowE Workshop 30-31/5/2002 “Analysis & Test” Project Scope –Unit tests for [electromagnetic] physics –Validation of physics models (comparison with experimental data, reference data, expected theoretical behaviour etc.) –Regression testing –Statistical elements in system testing Guidelines –Project of general interest in Geant4 involve stakeholders in the process –Joint project with the Anaphe team open to all interested Geant4 and Anaphe developers –Approved and funded by INFN (3 referees)

Maria Grazia Pia Geant4 LowE Workshop 30-31/5/2002 Process Iterative and incremental process –defined and documented… –no cow-boy process, please… Requirements –Use cases in Geant4: discussion with users (physics developers, STT, other WG developers?) –Use case model + supplementary specifications (non functional requirements) OOAD –OOAD based on the use-case model Traceability –Traceability items: requirements, analysis and design model elements, implementation, test artifacts, documentation and training material Discussions and reviews with stakeholders

Maria Grazia Pia Geant4 LowE Workshop 30-31/5/2002 already done still to be done Major role of analysis internal to Geant4 Initial work started last year: use case model

Maria Grazia Pia Geant4 LowE Workshop 30-31/5/2002 emlowen-V Also allows plotting histograms while running the simulation (UR) New design already implemented and tested Simple design, while waiting for AIDA 2.2 and Anaphe 4.0.n
