Description

Specifies requirements and gives guidance for the production of system-independent conformance test suites for one OSI international standards or CCITT Recommendations. In particular, it is applicable to the production of all conformance testing standards for OSI and ISDN two-party protocols, including all drafts versions of such conformance testing standards. This Standard is identical with, and has been reproduced from, ISO/IEC 9646-2:1991.

Scope

This part of ISO/IEC 9646 specifies the requirements and gives guidance for the production of system-independent conformance test suites for one or more OSI International Standards or CCITT Recommendations. In particular, it is applicable to the production of all conformance testing standards for OSI and ISDN two-party protocols, including all draft versions of such conformance testing standards.
This part of ISO/IEC 9646 is applicable to the production of conformance test cases which check the conformance of an implementation to the relevant static and/or dynamic conformance requirements bycontrolling and observing protocol behaviour. The Abstract Test Methods included in this part of ISO/IEC 9646 are, in fact, capable of being used to specify any test case which can be expressed abstractly in terms of control and observation of Protocol Data Units and Abstract Service Primitives. Nevertheless, for some protocols, test cases may be needed which cannot be expressed in these terms. The specification of such test cases is outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 9646, although the test cases may themselves need to be included in a conformance testing standard.
NOTE- For example, some static conformance requirements related to an Application service element may require testing techniques which are specific to that particular Application.
The following are outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 9646:
a) the relationship between Abstract Test Suite specification and Formal Description Techniques;
b) testing by means of test methods which are specific to particular applications, protocols or systems, including the testing of non-protocol conformance requirements;
c) test methods that involve more than two end-systems communicating together.
NOTE- This part of ISO/IEC 9646 applies fully to some but not all Physical layer protocols. Nevertheless, many of the concepts apply to all protocols.
