为了成功地执行系统工程任务，系统工程师需要有系统的观点，换句话说，需要高度的工程系统思维能力(CEST)。CEST的主要特征是能够看到整体情况并识别系统的紧急属性、能力、行为和功能，而不需要查看系统内部。目前正在开发一个定量评估CEST的工具，本文给出了初步的框架。这样的测试在开发和验证后，可能有助于组织更好地对工程学毕业生进行分类，并在员工中识别潜在的成功系统工程师。本文讨论了该工具的理论基础、原理、用途和开发阶段，并介绍了该工具的一些事项。
To successfully perform systems engineering tasks, the systems engineer needs a systems view or, in other words, a high Capacity for Engineering Systems Thinking (CEST). The main characteristic of CEST is the ability to see the whole picture and identify the system's emergent properties, capabilities, behaviours, and functions without looking inside the system. A tool for quantitatively assessing CEST is currently being developed and the initial framework is presented in this paper. Such a test, when developed and validated, may help organisations better classify engineering graduates, and identify potentially successful systems engineers among their employees. The paper discusses the rationale, principles, uses and stages of development, and presents some items of the tool.
