IEEE 2000.2 – IEEE Recommended Practice for Information Technology – Year 2000 Test Methods

New IEEE Standard – Inactive-Withdrawn.This document provides users of computer hardware, firmware, software, or data systems withrecommended practices for assessing and demonstrating the system elements within their organization thatmay be at risk of failure due to the Year 2000 problem and related date-specific issues. This recommendedpractice provides the framework for detailed planning and execution of all steps and tasks involved in testing for Year 2000 compliance. The resulting plan will outline the testing approach and identify system elementsthat are at risk of failure when crossing into the Year 2000 or using data that includes dates after 2000-01-01.
