Overview (resum en anglès):
In order to facilitate the optimal development of software, the presence of errors during its operation must be avoided. Consequently, the process of verification and validation plays a critical role in its development. Hence, the purpose of this project is to enhance the procedure mentioned specifically for Dynamo, an aircraft trajectory computation software developed by the Icarus group at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia.

This project delineates the following objectives: firstly, to attain an in-depth understanding of the testing methodology and software error correction, thereby comprehending the verification and validation process employed in systems. Once the theoretical framework is firmly established, the next objective entails exploring the existing resources and practices within the Icarus group concerning Dynamo. To improve the error correction process, it is necessary to ascertain their current procedures and the reasons for carrying them out.

With all this information gathered, the third objective of this project aims to present it to the members of the Icarus group, emphasising the importance of a robust verification and validation process. Moreover, during the topic presentation meeting, any possible requests they may have regarding improvements of the software are collected, aiming to make them as efficient as possible.

As the final objective, this project proposes enhancements to refine the testing methodology, along with a manual detailing the steps needed to carry out a proper verification and validation process.By accomplishing these objectives, Dynamo will continue its development and progress in the most effective manner possible.
