A nice article indeed.

Within my realm Fagan Inspection is part of every review stage
(and we have plenty during a development). My process builds 
these in and using the process properly leaves an audit trail that 
provides good evidence when building product certification and 
safety cases.

As I have indicated before I adopt a "Component Oriented Approach"
which means that we are complete with the delivery of each individual 
component to the final assembly. The simplest components can take 
as little as one hour to inspect, perform functional testing and run a
broad spectrum limitations test (in which we try and destroy the 
component by beyond limits operation).
