Scope

This part of ISO/IEC 9646 specifies requirements and gives guidance concerning the realization of a Means of Testing (MOT), in conformance with a reference Abstract Test Suite (ATS) specification, specified in compliance with ISO/IEC 9646-2. This part of ISO/IEC 9646 is applicable to producing MOTs for testing a single protocol, multiple protocols or a profile.

NOTE - This implies the use of ATSs as defined in ISO/IEC 9646- 1. However, within this part, the term ATS also applies to the additional Abstract Test Cases designed for testing a specific profile, and included in the Profile Specific Test Specification (PSTS).

These requirements are limited to those aspects of an MOT which can be mapped on to the abstract testing functions defined in ISO/IEC 9646-1, or which are essential to a proper use of the ATS. Such aspects might include a facility to produce conformance log, or the progression of the Implementation Extra Information for Testing (IXIT) proformas. Further implementation deta ils of test systems and Upper Testers are outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 9646.

Acceptance, validation and installation of MOT are outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 9646. See more
