Automation Plan Execution Environments

Sometimes the execution of an AutomationPlan requires a certain type of environment. For example, an AutomationPlan could be created for testing a software product using Firefox, DB2, and Tomcat on Linux 64bit architecture. Another AutomationPlan could be created for testing the same software product using Safari, Oracle, and Websphere on Windows 32bit architecture. The parameter definitions (oslc_auto:parameterDefinition properties) for both of these AutomationPlans are likely the same and likely to be provided during construction of the AutomationPlan. But the execution environments may need to be allocated and managed separately from these parameters.
