Embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for certifying components based on certification of the development and testing processes of the components. As noted above, traditional certification relies on the certification service or agent to specify the exact details of the development and testing processes performed on a component. In contrast, embodiments of the present invention rely on determining a standard required that should be satisfied by the processes performed on the component and certifying those processes that meet this standard. Hence, detailed specification of the individual actions performed in certified processes is unnecessary. This allows the various entities that develop or test (i.e., produce) a component to flexibly determine their own processes. |
