The purpose of this paper is to present a series of questions (or indicators) for assessing the verity and validity of the artifacts produced during the entire object-oriented simulation model development life cycle. Using modern object-oriented development processes, artifacts developed in one phase flow seamlessly from those of the previous phase. This provides forward and backward traceability between artifacts. This inherent backward traceability has been exploited by tracing defects in artifacts back to their defective ancestral artifacts. Questions are then phrased such that when answered in the negative indicate the presence of defects. Use of the Evaluation Environment software tool facilitates the integration of the answers to the assessment questions and enables an overall evaluation. The collection of questions can be useful for the verification and validation of artifacts in any object-oriented simulation model development.
