B.5.RC:7 - Conformance Checklist

For the construction being recovered:

  1. The needed result and its next use are clear enough to select a useful small case.
  2. Starting objects are distinguished from the intermediate objects to be produced.
  3. Each operation needed by the case has recoverable inputs, application conditions and output.
  4. Joint prerequisites, shared objects and alternative constructions retain their different effects.
  5. The forward construction reaches a useful result or locates the input or operation that prevents it.
  6. The property claimed of that result has the support its use requires; a broader claim retains its broader support question.
  7. An invented addition is identifiable as an addition, and the next collaborator can use the result or act on the gap.

Apply these questions to the work already done. Write a separate account only when its recipient needs one.
