Relating Interoperability Testing with Conformance Testing
نویسنده
چکیده
Conventionally the term conformance testing has been used to indiscriminately denote different types of conformance testing in a broad sense and the term interoperability testing has been used without regard to possibly different interoperability test architectures. This study classifies conformance testing into interface conformance testing and entity conformance testing and investigates how they can be related to interoperability testing as interoperability test architecture varies. It also discusses how the result of the investigation can be put into practical use for development of test suites and real test systems.

An Iterative Procedure for Efficient Testing of B2B: A Case in Messaging Service Tests
Testing is a necessary step in systems integration. Testing in the context of interenterprise, business-to-business (B2B) integration is more difficult and expensive than intra-enterprise integration. Traditionally, the difficulty is alleviated by conducting the testing in two stages: conformance testing and then interoperability testing. In conformance testing, systems are tested independently...
متن کاملInteroperabolity Events Complementing Conformance Testing Activities
Euclid of Alexandria, the most prominent mathematician of antiquity, is also the leading mathematics teacher of all times due to his treatise on mathematics, ’The Elements’. When once asked whether there wasn’t an easier way to study geometry than ’The Elements’, Euclid was said to respond: ’There is no royal road to geometry’. Interoperability is what most standards are about. It is the only t...
متن کاملA Case Study of Conformance and InteroperabilityTesting : AAL 3 / 4 layer implementationsYazid
This paper deals with a case study of conformance testing and interoperability testing of ATM Adaptation Layer type 3/4 (AAL 3/4) implementations. A set of conformance test purposes for AAL 3/4 sublayers is developped. The implementation of these test purposes is analysed using the transverse conformance test method and the interoperability test method. This analysis leads to the identiication ...

The paper presents why AUTOSAR conformance tests are required, what has been achieved, and how 3 car manufacturers will use conformance tests as part of their vehicle E/E engineering process. Important topics covered are the need for conformance testing when developing a standard, the relationship between conformance and interoperability, the need for interoperability of ECUs in a vehicle, and ...
متن کاملConformance Testing and Interoperability: A Case Study in Healthcare Data Exchange
Correct data exchange is critical for ensuring reliable healthcare systems. Standards based systems are the foundation for achieving this goal. However, standards alone are not enough to ensure this promise; conformance and interoperability testing are essential. We present and compare conformance testing strategies for a widely used healthcare clinical data exchange messaging standard. We disc...
