To successfully conduct a digital testing campaign, preparatory activities are usually required to set up the computational environment used for testing. This service performs activities such as:
setting up the hardware resources needed to run the tests
configuring and initialising the virtual environments used for testing (e.g., Docker images, private “data rooms” for safe data sharing)
installation and configuration of required software packages and dependencies
setting up authentication layers, user roles and credentials as needed
migration and/or exchange of required data and ground truth annotations
installation and configuration of a simulator
importing and configuring a previously defined simulated environment
executing dry-runs to check that all elements of the test environment operate as required
Environment preparation is done according to an environment design provided by the customer. If needed, such a design can be done by agrifoodTEF for the customer via Service S00176.
Interested customers can get support from agrifoodTEF for the entire pipeline involved in digital testing, from the design of its other elements beside the environment (namely, the testing protocol via service S00177 and the evaluation metrics via service S00178) to test execution (service S00182), data collection (service S00183), and evaluation (S00184). Support in interconnecting the systems under test to the digital testing environment, if needed, is available via service S00181.
