CONS3RT Collaborative On-Demand Services, Software and Systems Readiness Toolkit

CONS3RT provides a cradle-to-grave provisioning, test and validation environment (either local or cloud based) that fully embraces the DevOps philosophy and provides a flexible framework and toolset to enable the practice. At the most basic level, normal use cases invoke the automation and orchestration of build and test work flows. This includes things like provisioning one or many virtual and/or physical systems, loading/configuring the application baseline, installing the latest software build, bundling tests, running those tests, reporting results and repeating. The CONS3RT framework contains libraries of test assets (community based or local) as well as a rich but fully extensible toolset so the capability can and does evolve based on industry trends and customer needs.

CONS3RT helps improve software quality while reducing development costs and time to market by providing the tooling needed to easily implement Cloud/resource control, Continuous Integration, Automated provisioning and Test across the entire life cycle. CONS3RT is currently used as the main engine for the DISA's Forge.mil testing capability aka TestForge.
