TETRA's Interoperability Test Automation prototype (ITA) was tested and accepted during a validation session running May 11-12, 2010 in Berlin. The tests included functional testing of the prototype scripts and were supported with a number of observers by Motorola, EADS and
Fjord-e-design.
The Interoperability Test Automation prototype proved to be reliably capable of automated test execution and automatic log file analysis. Among others, a test case with up to 8 radio terminals and 2 base stations was performed. This test setup could be easily handled by the prototype. The tool showed great flexibility. Scripts, for instance, could be modified very fast to test alternative scenarios.
Testing Technologies delivered the scripting engine that enables the TETRA Association to develop and run a certification scheme for the Peripheral Equipment Interface (PEI). TTworkbench, Testing Technologies' test automation flagship, provides an efficient environment for the development and execution of automated tests. It supports pre-certification tests as well as self-certification, or test lab based certification schemes. Furthermore the certification environment can be extended in order to be used within an overall quality assurance process.
A demo of the Interoperability Test Automation prototype will be shown at the TETRA World Congress running May 25-27, 2010 in Singapore.
