The DIDO-TE SHALL observe the use of each resource identified for a Node by the governing Test Definition.
Observation of Node resource use establishes which resources a Node uses, when it uses them, and whether that use remains within the limits established by the governing Test Definition.
Resources include Test Resources and the computing, processing, memory, storage, communication, service, interface, credential, and external resources identified for observation by the governing Test Definition.
The governing Test Definition identifies the resources subject to observation and the authorized quantities, capacities, rates, durations, limits, priorities, and conditions governing their use.
Resource-use observation supports the detection of exhaustion, contention, leakage, unauthorized access, unexpected consumption, unavailable resources, and interference between Nodes or Test Executions.
NOD-008d observes resource use across the lifecycle periods identified by the governing Test Definition. This includes resource allocation, use, retention, release, and attempted use occurring before, during, between, or after Test Executions.
Missing, delayed, incomplete, or incorrectly attributed resource-use observations may conceal conditions that change Node behavior, affect other participants, or invalidate Test Results and Evidence.
