  1. 01

    Before you commission testing.

    Check the pathway and evidence questions the test plan depends on.

  2. 02

    Before you rely on a predicate or pathway assumption.

    See whether an independent view reaches the same route and comparisons.

    Before you fix intended-use wording.

    Understand how the wording may affect classification, route and evidence.
