Part 2 of the standard defines a generic testing process model that can be used within any software development and testing life cycle. This process will be based on a four-layer testing process covering:

• Organizational Test Specifications (e.g. Organizational Test Policy, Organizational Test Strategy)
• Test Management (e.g. project test management, phase test management)
• Dynamic Test Processes, including test design & implementation, test environment set-up & maintenance, test execution and incident reporting

The diagrams below illustrate various layers of the process that are described in Part 2 (from December 2011 draft international standard).
