====== ENV-001g — Define Configuration Values ======

[[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 define each [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]] value applicable to a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]] or record that no Configuration value applies 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 =====

Defining the applicable [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]] values establishes the settings required to instantiate and operate a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]] in its intended state.

The defined values support validation of the instantiated Test Environment, reproduction of its starting state, comparison between Test Environments, and assessment of whether a Configuration difference influenced a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_result|Test Result]].

An explicit determination that no Configuration value applies 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:c:configuration|Configuration]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:n:node|Node]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_object|Test Object]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_resource|Test Resource]]

===== Verification =====

Verification confirms that:

  * Each Test Environment defines every applicable Configuration value.
  * Each defined Configuration value identifies the element or property to which it applies.
  * Each applicable Configuration value in the instantiated Test Environment corresponds to a defined value.
  * A Test Environment without an applicable Configuration value records the determination and its basis.
  * A missing or undefined applicable Configuration value constitutes nonconformance with this requirement.

Verification includes:

  * Inspection of the controlled information for each Test Environment
  * Inspection of the defined Configuration values
  * Inspection of the Configuration values present in the instantiated Test Environment
  * Comparison of the defined values with the values present in the instantiated Test Environment
  * Inspection of recorded determinations that no Configuration value applies
  * Inspection of the basis recorded for each such determination
  * A negative assessment using a missing, undefined, or unexpected Configuration value
  * Confirmation that the negative assessment produces a nonconformance result
