A Tool for Testing Compliance with CIP4’s Interoperability Conformance Specifications

نویسنده

چکیده

Job Definition Format (JDF) is a relatively young industry standard developed by The International Cooperation for the Integration of Processes in Prepress, Press and Postpress (CIP4). JDF specifies a data format for describing print jobs and exchanging production information between systems in the print production workflow. Most vendors in the printing industry today offer “JDF-enabled” products, but the industry lacks a well-defined test protocol and specialized tools for testing and verifying the level of JDF-compliance that products have. This paper presents an open source test tool for testing the level of JDF compliance as specified by the CIP4 organization’s Interoperability Conformance Specification (ICS) documents. The test tool is semiautomated and validates system behavior and output of JDF instances and JMF messages both syntactically and based on context.

ITRI-WiMAXT: A WiMAX conformance testing tool

The WiMAX Forum certifies and promotes the compatibility and interoperability of broadband wireless products where many testcases need to be developed for WiMAX procedures. In this paper, we develop a conformance test tool called ITRI-WiMAXT based on the TTCN-3 specifications. Then we show howWiMAX procedures are tested in ITRI-WiMAXT. Based on ITRI-WiMAXT, we have proposed several test procedu...

Testing Communicating Systems: a Model, a Methodology, and a Tool

This paper follows two main lines of research. The first line is related to the study of models for the description of systems. For this line, we introduce the model of Communicating Systems (CS), which defines a set of common resources, a set of entities, and a topology of communication. The second line focuses on testing methodologies adapted to protocol testing. For this line, we give a form...
