scope:
The purpose of the present document is to provide broad guidelines on the use of a common method for developing test specifications for IPv6. This method is applicable to all IPv6 categories including the core specification, mobility, security and transitioning to IPv6 from IPv4.
The underlying method is based on the methodologies specified in ISO/IEC 9646-1 [4] for conformance tests and ETSI TS 102 237-1 [1] for interoperability tests. It provides guidance on the development and use of the following key elements of the method:
- a Requirements Catalogue (RC);
- a Test Suite Structure (TSS) and Test Purposes (TP);
- Test Descriptions (TD)
- interoperability;
- a TTCN-3 library of data types and values, templates and functions;
- an Abstract Test Suite (ATS) - conformance.
The method also offers guidance on a naming convention and other style-related issues.
Although the present document has been developed primarily for use in the testing of IPv6 standards, it could equally be used in other areas of protocol test specification.
