MATLAB: Where can I find detailed tool operational requirements for the IEC Certification Kit like those found for the DO Qualification Kit

IEC Certification Kit

When examining the IEC Certification kit, I noticed that it makes reference to traceability to operational requirements. Unlike the version of the DO Qualification Tool Kit, the IEC Certification Tool Kit does not appear to contain “Operational Requirement” documents that provide descriptions of the requirements to go with these references. In which documents are those requirements listed by description, and how can I obtain a copy of these documents?

Tool operational requirements are not shipped as part of the IEC Certification Kit. As opposed to DO-330 tool qualification, validation of tools per ISO 26262 does not require detailed operational requirements. TÜV considers it sufficient to provide high-level tool use cases, specified in the Tool Qualification Package document (e.g. "qualkitdo_slchk_tqp.pdf" for Simulink Check), rather than detailed tool operational requirements.
In R2019a, you can find these and other related documents in the "toolbox/qualkits/iec" directory in the folder where MATLAB is installed. Files are further organized by tool name, so for instance, documents that specifically apply to Simulink Check would be found under "toolbox/qualkits/iec/slchk".
