The paper describes the use of automated testing tools to improve the quality of operational flight program testing. Specifically this paper examines the use of Model Reference Technology, or MRT, to model the desired behavior of Operational Flight Programs, automate test generation and systematize software testing. Examples are given of the usage of TestMaster, a commercial MRT-based quality solution, in combination with automated test execution tools, such as AutoVal, to significantly improve the formal qualification testing process of an avionics mission computer subsystem
