Resumo

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) project is an international initiative to build a next generation ground-based observatory for very high energy gammarays. Three classes of telescopes with different dish size will cover the full energy range from 20 GeV up to 300 TeV. Full sky coverage will be provided by two arrays, located in the northern and southern hemispheres, respectively. The array in the southern hemisphere will include seventy small sized telescopes (SST, 4m diameter). Their implementation has different phases. The ASTRI mini-array of CTA pre-production telescopes is one of the SST mini-arrays proposed to be installed at the CTA southern site. The construction of the ASTRI mini-array is an effort led by the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) and carried out by institutes from Italy, Brazil, and South Africa. The ASTRI mini-array will consist of nine ASTRI units based on the end-to-end prototype already installed on Mt. Etna (Italy) and that is currently undergoing engineering tests. The ASTRI software integration team will manage software releases, their deployment and the preliminary integration tests. This team will support the end-to-end prototype operations according to the system Assembly Integration and Verification (AIV) plan. The software components, individually deployed and first tested with their engineering Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs), are routinely used, and therefore verified in the overall system tests. This contribution presents the transition from the engineering test environment to the operation environment. (AU)
