... Test harnesses should perform the following tests: . check run-to-completion. check whether the output data is valid (e.g. within a specified range). check some of the values in the output to see whether they are correct (e.g. whether a source is detected where it was put in the first place; whether a sorted vector is really sorted). when the task should explicitly be able to handle special cases, test whether the special cases are dealt with properly. ...
