(b) (1) Identify and evaluate safety requirements for each computing system safety item; (2) Ensure the safety requirements are complete and correct; (3) Implement each safety requirement; and (4) Verify and validate the implementation of each safety requirement by using a method appropriate for the level of criticality of the computing system safety item. For each computing system safety item that is safety critical under § 401.7, verification and validation must include testing by a test team independent of the development division or organization. (c) (1) Responsibilities for each task associated with a computing system safety item; (2) Processes for internal review and approval—including review that evaluates the implementation of all safety requirements—such that no person approves that person's own work; (3) Processes to ensure development personnel are trained, qualified, and capable of performing their role; (4) Processes that trace requirements to verification and validation evidence; (5) Processes for configuration management that specify the content of each released version of a computing
