Question 06: Why is it called tool validation?

What does it mean to validate a tool, and what to verify it — and where do we find these terms in tool qualification prescribed by the ISO 26262 safety standard? In this short question episode Dr. Oscar Slotosch clarifies common misunderstandings and explains when it is appropriate to perform a code review, and when a tool should be tested.
