Human Factors
Test Suite for the 2007 VVSG Recomendations (VVSG-NI)
April, 2009
The documents available from this page represent a test suite
for the human factors requirements in Part 1 Chapter 3 of the
2007 VVSG Recommendations to the EAC. When the 2007 VVSG Recommendations
is approved by the Election Assistance Commission (EAC), the test
suites will be available for use by voting system testing laboratories
as a common basis for testing voting systems to determine conformance
to the 2007 VVSG Recommendations.
Test
suite reviewers are advised to first read and understand the 2007
VVSG Recommendations, especially the sections relevant to the
test suites under review, before reviewing the test suites. A
complete version of the 2007 VVSG Recommendations to the EAC can
be found at http://www.eac.gov/vvsg.
