scope:

The present document describes a test system and underlying reference and mirror tests for assuring the correctness of tools for executing tests that are specified using TTCN-3. The scope is the TTCN-3 Executable (TE) as standardized in ES 201 873-1 [i.1] and ES 201 873-4 [i.2]. For the quality assurance of tools that realise the TE, TTCN-3 test specification that are based on reference tests for the 3G mobile telecommunication system are used. This reference test suite and a corresponding mirror test suite are executed by TTCN-3 tools and run against each other to gain confidence in the correctness of the involved TTCN-3 tools.
