    Abstract

    The integration and test plan of a newly developed or manufactured product often has a typical form in a specific organization. This paper describes a number of typical integration and test plans encountered at various organizations with different business drivers. The integration and test plans are described using the same simple notation. A number of aspects per organization is investigated: a typical integration and test plan, the organization size, product volume, business drivers, number of components in the product and the used technology. The investigated organizations are grouped according to product complexity and a rough classification of integration and test plans: flexible and regulated integration and test plans. We conclude that flexible integration and test plans are used in time-to-market driven organizations, while regulated plans are used for non-time-to-market driven organizations.
