====== ENV-001e — Identify Required Test Resources ======

[[dido:03-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-c-requirements:03-functional-requirements:03-01-test-environment-requirements:env-001-define-test-environment:start|Go to ENV-001 — Define Test Environment]]

===== Statement =====

The [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:d:dido-te|DIDO-TE]] SHALL identify each [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_resource|Test Resource]] required by a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]] or record that the Test Environment requires no Test Resource and provide the basis for the determination.

===== Derived From =====

  * [[dido:03-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-b-references:dte-005|[DTE5] DIDO-TE Requirements Register]], source requirement identifier and obligation to be assigned
  * [[dido:03-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-b-references:dte-006|[DTE6] Structured Information Processing Reference Architecture (SIP-RA)]]
  * [[dido:03-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-b-references:dte-007|[DTE7] Federated Data Interpretation Systems Reference Architecture (FDIS-RA)]]

===== Rationale =====

Identifying the required [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_resource|Test Resources]] establishes the resources needed to instantiate and operate a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]].

The recorded resource requirements support provisioning, availability assessment, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]], and confirmation that the Test Environment satisfies the resource needs of each applicable [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_definition|Test Definition]].

An explicit determination that no Test Resource is required distinguishes an intentional condition from missing information.

===== Applies To =====

  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_resource|Test Resource]]

===== Verification =====

Verification confirms that:

  * Each Test Environment identifies every required Test Resource.
  * Each identified Test Resource has an explicit relationship to the Test Environment.
  * Each required Test Resource appears among the identified Test Resources.
  * A Test Environment requiring no Test Resource records the determination and its basis.
  * A missing Test Resource identification or determination constitutes nonconformance with this requirement.

Verification includes:

  * Inspection of the controlled information for each Test Environment
  * Inspection of the identified Test Resources
  * Comparison of the identified Test Resources with the resources required to instantiate and operate the Test Environment
  * Inspection of recorded determinations that no Test Resource is required
  * Inspection of the basis recorded for each such determination
  * A negative assessment using a Test Environment with an unidentified required Test Resource
  * Confirmation that the negative assessment produces a nonconformance result
