Abstract:
Mars Pathfinder (MPF) flight software development departed from strict adherence to then existing institutional software standards in order to produce software that would contribute to lower operations cost and minimize the overall cost to the project. Innovations included early software planning, getting software and hardware together early, avoiding excessive use of CASE tools, and development of a "Flight-Like Test Set" for early unit and integration testing
