Testing
Assessment
- Operational tests are….
A type of post-implementation test performed periodically to prove correct system operation but DOES NOT involve verification of equipment operating specifications
- Post-maintenance tests are….?
A post-implementation test conducted after preventive or remedial maintenance on a security system to make sure the systems are working properly.
- Limited Scope tests are…?
A post-implementation test used to test a complex system that is broken down into several subsystems or segments that are tested separately.
- Performance tests are?
“PIT-VEMS”
“PIT-VEMS”
(Post-Implementation Test - Verifies Equipment Meets Specs and is, therefore, effective.)
- Subsystem tests are…?
A post-implementation test that ensures large parts of the system are all working together as designed.
- Evaluation tests are…?
A P, P-I, I
A periodic, post-implementation, independent test of the security system to validate the vulnerability analysis and ensure overall effectiveness is being maintained.

Maintenance,
Evaluation and
Replacement

At least annually
- Stress tests…?
Check people’s or objects’ tolerance to abuse or misuse under stress
- Regression tests are…?
Tests that apply to subsystems, systems or procedures that have been altered to a perform a a new function and must still perform some of their original functions.

- The 4 goals of preventive maintenance?
K-E-I CV
-Keep equipment and systems operating efficiently;
-extend the operational life of equipment
-identify equipment issues before a failure occurs
-check and verify that all secondary power sources such as standby batteries are fully charged and working.
- Remedial maintenance?
-corrects faults and returns the system to operation after a hardware or software component failure
- The major goal of system maintenance agreements?
Ensure the security system operates at its optimum capability with minimum downtime.
- What is standards compliance test (SCT)?
Evaluates system compliance with both in-house compliance standards and industry standards.
