TOPIC: TTCN3 for Smart Cards and SIMs

TTCN3 for Smart Cards and SIMs 01 Apr 2004 12:08 #6655

Hello, Anthony ...

As a quick update, we are successfully using TTCN3 to test smart cards and SIMs.
We have defined a smart card framework in TTCN3 that makes writing these tests
quite easy.

The big win so far is being able to generate lots of "all possible"
style tests that run through all values of various APDU parameters to make sure
that the smart card does the right thing in all cases. Of course they take some
time to run but that's what weekends are for, right?

Another win is being able to write tests of the card's cryptography that involve
random numbers.

Hope all is well.

Cheers, Scott

Scott,

BTW are these tests standardised by ETSI or are they proprietary? I ask because
I am trying to build a repository of all ETSI TTCN-3 test specs and was
wondering if it would be possible to include your tests.

Regards,
Anthony

Anthony:

No, the tests are not in any ETSI TS. There is an open WI in SCP to create TTCN3 tests for the UICC but I was the only person that seemed to be interested in working on it which is why I proceeded on my own "out of band". The consensus in SCP was to develop their own homegrown testing language(s).

Cheers, Scott
