Experience with an innovative approach to requirements based testing in the IEEE POSIX arena is presented. The work described in this paper is based on a full scale conformance test suite development for the standard IEEE Std 10035-The Ada Language Binding to POSIX. The approach taken in this work is based on a formal description of test requirements which can be automatically translated into executable tests by the Clemson Automated Testing System (CATS). A brief design overview of CATS, as well as a design taxonomy for the testing requirements is presented. Lessons learned from this experienced recommendations for future work conclude the paper.
