Abstract
|
| We
first discuss communication system conformance testing. We describe
several fundamental problems, their complexity and solutions. We report
industrial applications of the developed techniques. |
| We
then present our work on system interoperability testing. This work
has been motivated by the need to test interoperability of systems
carrying voice calls over the IP network. Voice over IP (VoIp) systems
must be integrated and interoperate with the exiting Public Switched
Telephone Network before they are widely adopted. Standards have been
developed to address this problem, but unfortunately there is no guarantee
that the integrated VoIP systems would interoperate properly even
if the implementations are all compliant to standards. Interoperability
testing has become indispensable. |
|
We study
criteria that cover all the required patterns of "interoperating
behaviors". We want to test all such system interoperations. On
the other hand, test execution in real environment is expensive,
and we want to minimize the number of tests. We study data structures
and efficient test generation algorithms, which take time proportional
to the total test case size. We report experimental results on VoIP
systems.
