Deprecate ssp-all-VALID.xml SSP for integration testing, replace with example SSP #958
Description
This is a ...
improvement - something could be better
This relates to ...
- the FedRAMP OSCAL Validations
User Story
Per discussion with the team, with #953 merged, we have agreed to move forward with using the revised, fuller SSP example that @brian-ruf has been working on with us to drive requirement checking and flesh out the epics in #803. We will now deprecate the ssp-all-VALID.xml file and replace integration-level testing with this file to use existing data that is closer to being a full representation of valid OSCAL data for SSP before constraint definition, instead of backporting during constraint dev.
Goals
- Simplify constraint development and building example valid OSCAL that does not fail constraint violation
- Minimize merge conflicts in the valid SSP file for integration, it's one of several common locations for merge conflicts with overlapping PRs
Dependencies
