Preoperational Testing Quality Assurance l
This inspection involved a review of the quality assurance program used for preoperational testing. Program implementation was also reviewes.
'
Compliance with regulatory requirements and quality assurance program
ccamitments was verified. The inspection was performed by observing work
activities, conducting personnel interviews and reviewing applicable i
procedures and records. Audits and surveillances of pre-test, testing and post-testing activities by the quality assurance organization were reviewed.
Test evaluations and reviews by the operations technical staff,
'
as well as methods used for documenting, tracking and resolving test
deficencies were also included in the inspection.
.
Preoperational testing for Byron Unit 2 is performed by systems test engineers (STEs) assigned to the operations technical staff. Pre-test
reviews and systems walk-downs are conducted at the time of system l
turnover to determine their status. This status is reviewed by STEs to i
determine system testability and the impact of incomplete or nonconforming
!
items on testing. Deficiencies noted prior to and during testing are documented on a deficiency form. Open and closed deficiency forms are included as a part of the test package. After testing is complete, the test is evaluated by the responsible STE.
This evaluation is documented i
and included in the test package.
The test package is then reviewed by
,
the cognizant group leader and the Test Review Board (TRB). These reviews j
