It is a major applied interdisciplinary research initiative involving information systems, computer science, and computer engineering scholars under the umbrella of the FedEx Institute of Technology. In tandem with industry partners, STEP researchers focus on with building up applied research and curricular competencies at the University of Memphis to foster thought leadership in the science of systems testing and evaluation. STEP defines systems testing and evaluation as a strategic and interdisciplinary area of interest encompassing all aspects of the testing and evaluation of information and related technologies including hardware, software, network, requirements and business rule test and evaluation. At a theoretical level it encompasses all forms of validation and verification of technology applications using a systems theoretic approach to ensure successful development and deployment in practical settings. STEP has a unique relation with the Software Quality Assurance group at FedEx Corporation serving as its research and training partner. STEP undertakes customized test audit and methodology research for industry partners by focusing on the toughest challenges facing test and evaluation organizations. It also offers five-day Foundational and ten-day Advanced Certification in Systems Testing programs to provide a research-based and rigorous comprehensive survey of the latest state-of-the-art thinking in testing and evaluation. The goal of the certification programs is to provide the attendees with a solid working knowledge of the major aspects of testing and evaluation so that they can successfully work as testers and evaluators or, as other development life cycle stakeholders, interact with testers and evaluators more effective. ..................
