Configuration of SFWHCreditStTest

This test monitors each warehouse for credit usage and collects statistics related to the trend of credit usage and rate of credit consumption. Looking at these metrics administrators can identify the root cause of any unexpected surge in credit consumption, this, in turn, can help them re-architecture the warehouse design by shutting down unused warehouses and re-directing the queries on more used ones.
