JMETC Distributed Test
Abstract
The Joint Mission Environment Test Capability (JMETC) program provides a Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise-wide test capability to support system-to-system interoperability testing, mission-level environment testing, and cyber event operations, including cyber testing, cyber training, cyber experimentation, and cyber mission rehearsal. The JMETC program implements the infrastructure capabilities defined in the DoD “Testing in a Joint Environment Roadmap” to provide acquisition program managers a robust nation-wide capability to “test like we fight”. The JMETC program provides a persistent, distributed test and evaluation (T&E) capability that supports system development to measure and improve interoperability performance and cyber resiliency, which otherwise would not be readily available to Service/Component acquisition programs. The JMETC program is funded within the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) Management Support Budget Activity because it provides test capability in support of RDT&E programs. By linking distributed facilities, as well as providing the necessary tools, services and subject matter expertise, the JMETC program allows acquisition programs to efficiently evaluate their warfighting capability in a realistic joint mission environment. The JMETC Program has been aligned to advance the National Defense Strategy (NDS), to test the development of resilient, survivable, federated networks and information ecosystems from the tactical level up to strategic planning, as well as test and assess cyber defenses, building a more lethal force.
