This document defines a methodology to evaluate scenarios and provides a procedure for extending test scenarios to test cases. This document also defines the necessary characteristics of test cases, which include but are not limited to unified identifiers, test objectives, inputs, steps, platforms and expected results.

This document describes methods and criteria to evaluate test cases (e.g. frequency, criticality, complexity of a scenario), the coverage concerning functional and technical requirements, operational domain (OD), test criteria, and also the optimization of sets of prioritized test cases.

This document is applicable to Level 3 and higher ADSs as defined in ISO/SAE PAS 22736. The focus of this document is on scenarios, which will be tested to evaluate safety (functional safety and safety of the intended functionality (SOTIF)). The content, in general, is also applicable to non-safety related test scenarios.
