====== ENV-002e — Apply Configuration Values ======

[[dido:03-dido-te:99-annexes:annex-c-requirements:03-functional-requirements:03-01-test-environment-requirements:env-002-configure-test-environment:start|Go to ENV-002 — Configure Test Environment]]

===== Statement =====

The [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:d:dido-te|DIDO-TE]] SHALL apply each specified [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]] value to the applicable element of a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]] before [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_execution|Test Execution]].

===== 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 =====

Applying each specified [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]] value establishes the required operating state of every configurable element within a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_environment|Test Environment]].

The applied values govern the behaviour of [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_object|Test Objects]], [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:n:node|Nodes]], [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_resource|Test Resources]], communication mechanisms, and supporting services during [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_execution|Test Execution]].

Recording and verifying the applied values supports controlled execution, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:r:reproducibility|Reproducibility]], and assessment of whether a Configuration difference influenced a [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_result|Test Result]].

===== 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:t:test_object|Test Object]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:n:node|Node]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_resource|Test Resource]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:test_execution|Test Execution]]
  * [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:b:baseline|Baseline]]

===== Verification =====

Verification confirms that:

  * The DIDO-TE identifies every Configuration value specified for the Test Environment.
  * The DIDO-TE applies each specified Configuration value to its applicable Test Environment element.
  * Each applied Configuration value has the specified name, value, data type, unit, format, and scope, when applicable.
  * Each configured element exposes or otherwise provides evidence of its applied Configuration values.
  * The DIDO-TE records the applied Configuration values as part of the resulting Test Environment Configuration.
  * The DIDO-TE maintains [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:t:traceability|Traceability]] between each specified Configuration value and its applied value.
  * A missing, incorrect, invalid, or untraceable Configuration value constitutes nonconformance with this requirement.

Verification includes:

  * Inspection of the Configuration values specified for the Test Environment
  * Inspection of the Configuration values applied to each applicable Test Environment element
  * Comparison of each applied Configuration value with its controlled specification
  * Inspection of the resulting Test Environment Configuration
  * Inspection of Traceability records connecting each specified Configuration value to its applied value
  * A negative assessment using a missing, incorrect, invalid, or untraceable Configuration value
  * Confirmation that the negative assessment produces a nonconformance result
