[Sis-ams] Planning for Interoperability Testing

[Edell, David J.]

Scott,
 
I'd be available to join in as a test conductor if we converge in MD,
either at GSFC or, if your interested, here at APL.  If we aim for
testing in January though, keep in mind that inauguration week would be
a time to avoid travelling anywhere near DC/MD.
 
- David

Subject: [Sis-ams] Planning for Interoperability Testing



The email thread I'm starting here is mainly for Tim, Pat, and David,
but I thought I'd send at least the initial message to the WG so
everybody knows where we are.

 

Which is: at this point we've gotten through the initial steps of
interoperability testing between the JPL and GSFC implementations and
also (via Internet) between the JPL and MSFC implementations.  Our
intent has been to get together for a few days of intensive,
face-to-face interoperability testing among all three implementations,
with the aim of working through all of David's test plan and being able
to report at the end of March that we have got interoperating
implementations and are ready for a final Agency review of the spec.  I
hoped, tentatively, that we might be ready for this at some time in
January.  Pat and Tim, how do you feel about that?  Should we aim for
early February instead?

 

And what's the best venue for this?  I am pretty sure that this kind of
testing goes better if we are collocated, operating over a tabletop LAN
switch.  That means that most of us must travel, though; is that a
problem?  My thought has been that we'd minimize travel costs by
converging on GSFC, since all the rest of us should have access to
direct (hopefully inexpensive) flights into Dulles or BWI, but I am open
to other suggestions.  And David, even though you wouldn't have an
implementation to run in this exercise, would you be able to join us as
test conductor?
