A Test Planning Methodology From Concept Development Through Test Execution

Abstract

The Joint Advanced Distributed Simulation (JADS) Joint Test and Evaluation was chartered by the Deputy Director, Test, Systems Engineering, and Evaluation (Test and Evaluation), Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition and Technology) in October 1994 to investigate the utility of advanced distributed simulation (ADS) technologies for support of development test and evaluation and operational test and evaluation. This special report outlines the steps in planning and implementing ADS-based testing. The methodology is divided into two parts: an ADS-inclusive test concept development methodology and an ADS-based test planning and implementation methodology. The objective of the test concept development methodology is to determine whether ADS-based testing is either required or desired. If the decision is made to implement ADS-based testing, then the ADS-based test planning and implementation methodology should be followed.
