1. A data service tracker module for an aircraft communication system, comprising:
an interface with a communication mechanism operable to receive regulated transaction communication data between a transaction source and a transaction destination of the aircraft communication system, and wherein the transaction destination having a shared memory defining a set of data stores; and
a controller module configured to:
receive, during a testing operation of the regulated transaction communication data, real-time transaction communications defining access between a transaction source and a transaction destination, the transaction destination having a shared memory defining a set of data stores;
identify transaction communication aspects of the transaction communication data, defining a data coupling between at least the transaction source and at least one of the set of data stores of the shared memory;
build a set of data couplings of the aircraft communication system, each data coupling defines the transaction source and the at least one of the set of data stores of the shared memory;
compare the set of data couplings with a predetermined expected set of data couplings;
determine, based on the comparison, that the aircraft communication system is operating in accordance with a predetermined expected set of data couplings; and
validate the testing operation of the aircraft communication system completed successfully.
