(U)AUTOMATED TEST AND RE-TEST (ATRT)

Abstract

Starting in FY16, the Navy implemented an enterprise approach to Automated Test and Analysis (ATA) which adds a new method of automated test technologies, standardizes automated test practices, methods and tools. ATA expands the automated test methods that's currently used in Automated Test and Re-Test (ATRT). ATRT technologies provide essential development, assessment, and operational analysis capabilities to streamline testing and certification for both single systems and systems of systems capabilities in order to reduce development time for new capabilities from years to weeks. Also, leveraged to support refactoring, development, and assessment of Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) aids with other applications to deliver warfighting capability. Integration of legacy code and systems across the Naval warfighting portfolio soon to achieve an open integration and interoperability environment. Project funding supports the development of enterprise level strategies and activities to apply ATA technologies to software-intensive acquisition programs. The objectives include support for the Chief of Naval Operations' (CNO) vision outlined in the CNO's Navigation Plan (NAVPLAN) through continued development and commercialization of ATRT Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) technologies across the Navy enterprise. These SBIR derived technologies enable the Navy enterprise to make rapid capability improvements through software updates while maintaining a continuous Authority to Operate (ATO) on a common digital warfighting platform, and in enterprise sandbox technologies.

Change Summary Explanation
FINANCIAL: The increase to 9B88 of $1.036M in program resources from FY 2023 to FY 2024 is required to further enable faster software testing in lab environments to facilitate delivery of better integrated software solutions into the fleet. This includes integration of test capabilities into laboratories as well as the Overmatch Software Armory (OSA). Additionally, program will provide support for future capabilities by leveraging Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) events and utilizing live assets in an operational environment. TECHNICAL: No significant changes. SCHEDULE: Activities and milestones clarified to better show synchronization of Project 9B88 activities and deliverables in support of Project Overmatch and digital warfighting transformation objectives and enterprise sandbox technologies. Major Milestones - Project 9B88: The overall schedule for project 9B88 is held at a higher classification. In FY24, program anticipates Increment 2 IOC as well as the completion of a significant LVC event in Q1 2024 while building to quarterly LVC events throughout FY24.
