Introduction This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 26513-2010, IEEE Standard for Adoption of ISO/IEC 26513:2009, Systems and Software EngineeringRequirements for Testers and

3、Reviewers of User Documentation. Usable documentation not only assists software users and helps to reduce the cost of training and support, but also enhances the reputation of the product, its producer, and its suppliers. This standard specifies activities for reviewing and testing user documentatio

4、n, and provides the minimum requirements for these activities. It covers review procedures for user documentation, as well as system testing, usability testing, accessibility testing, and localization and customization testing of user documentation. It is relevant to project managers, editors, usabi

5、lity experts, testers, documentation reviewers, and information developers. It applies to both printed and on-screen user documentation. It applies to both initial development and subsequent releases of the software and user documentation. This standard is independent of the software tools that migh

6、t be used to produce documentation. Much of its guidance is applicable to user documentation for systems including hardware as well as to software user documentation. This standard is part of a series including IEEE Std 26514-2010, IEEE Standard for Adoption of ISO/IEC 26514:2008, Systems and Softwa

7、re EngineeringRequirements for Designers and Developers of User Documentation. Other standards in the 2651N series are forthcoming to address requirements for user documentation management and for acquisition and supply of user documentation. It is based on the processes required in ISO/IEC 15288:20

8、08 (IEEE Std 15288-2008), Systems and software engineering System life cycle processes, and ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207-2008), Systems and software engineering Software life cycle processes. This standard describes the activities involved in the Documentation Management and Validation process

9、es of ISO/IEC 12207:2008 (IEEE Std 12207-2008), from the viewpoint of the user documentation tester.

National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activi

45、ty. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committ

46、ee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to

The documentation might be the first tangible item that the users see, and so influences the first impressions the users have of the product.

Therefore, well-designed documentation not only assists the users and helps to reduce the cost of training and support, but also enhances the reputation o
