ENV-002c — Instantiate Included Nodes

Go to ENV-002 — Configure Test Environment

The DIDO-TE SHALL instantiate each Node included in a Test Environment before Test Execution.

• [DTE5] DIDO-TE Requirements Register, source requirement identifier and obligation to be assigned
• [DTE6] Structured Information Processing Reference Architecture (SIP-RA)
• [DTE7] Federated Data Interpretation Systems Reference Architecture (FDIS-RA)

Instantiating each included Node establishes the operational participants required by a Test Environment.

The instantiated Nodes perform the information-processing, communication, observation, control, or support functions required during Test Execution.

Establishing correspondence between each defined Node and its instantiated state supports controlled execution, Reproducibility, and assessment of whether a Node difference influenced a Test Result.

• Test Environment
• Node
• Test Execution
• Configuration
• Baseline
• Deployment Target

Verification confirms that:

• The DIDO-TE instantiates every Node included in the Test Environment.
• Each instantiated Node corresponds to a Node identified by the controlled Test Environment information.
• Each instantiated Node has the specified version, Baseline, Configuration, and Deployment Target.
• Each instantiated Node enters its required initial lifecycle state before Test Execution.
• The DIDO-TE maintains Traceability between each defined Node and its instantiated state.
• A missing, incorrect, or untraceable Node instance constitutes nonconformance with this requirement.

Verification includes:

• Inspection of the Nodes identified for the Test Environment
• Inspection of each instantiated Node
• Comparison of each instantiated Node with its controlled definition
• Inspection of the version, Baseline, Configuration, Deployment Target, and initial lifecycle state of each instantiated Node
• Inspection of Traceability records connecting each defined Node to its instantiated state
• A negative assessment using a missing, incorrect, or untraceable Node instance
• Confirmation that the negative assessment produces a nonconformance result

• Add links to the architecture sections governing Nodes, Test Environment instantiation, deployment, and Node lifecycle.

Assign the applicable delivery phase.
