Testing and Evaluation: Essentials

Novel Approaches for Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation by Jinyi Lee; Hoyong Lee; Azouaou Berkache Nondestructive testing and evaluation (NDT&E) is one of the most important techniques for determining the quality and safety of materials, components, devices, and structures. NDT&E technologies include ultrasonic testing (UT), magnetic particle testing (MT), magnetic flux leakage testing (MFLT), eddy current testing (ECT), radiation testing (RT), penetrant testing (PT), and visual testing (VT), and these are widely used throughout the modern industry.

Security Controls: Evaluation, Testing, and Assessment Handbook by Leighton Johnson Security Controls: Evaluation, Testing, and Assessment Handbook provides a current and well-developed approach to evaluate and test IT security controls to prove they are functioning correctly. This handbook discusses the world of threats and potential breach actions surrounding all industries and systems. Sections cover how to take FISMA, NIST Guidance, and DOD actions, while also providing a detailed, hands-on guide to performing assessment events for information security professionals in US federal agencies. This handbook uses the DOD Knowledge Service and the NIST Families assessment guides as the basis for needs assessment, requirements and evaluation efforts.

Test and Evaluation Challenges in Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Systems for the Department of the Air Force by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine; Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences; Air Force Studies Board; Committee on Testing, Evaluating, and Assessing Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Systems Under Operational Conditions for the Department of the Air Force The Department of the Air Force (DAF) is in the early stages of incorporating modern artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into its systems and operations. The integration of AI-enabled capabilities across the DAF will accelerate over the next few years. At the request of DAF Air and Space Forces, this report examines the Air Force Test Center technical capabilities and capacity to conduct rigorous and objective tests, evaluations, and assessments of AI-enabled systems under operational conditions and against realistic threats. This report explores both the opportunities and challenges inherent in integrating AI at speed and at scale across the DAF.
