This part of ISO 10303 specifies the abstract test suite to be used in the conformance testing of

implementations of ISO 10303-232. The following are within the scope of this part of ISO 10303:

— the specification of the test purposes associated with ISO 10303-232;

— the verdict criteria to be applied during conformance testing of an implementation of ISO 10303-

232 using ISO 10303-21 or ISO 10303-22;

NOTE The verdict criteria are used to ascertain whether a test purpose has been satisfactorily met by an

implementation under test (IUT) within the context of a given test case.

— the abstract test cases to be used as the basis for the executable test cases for conformance testing.

The following are outside the scope of this part of ISO 10303:

— the creation of executable test cases;

— test specifications for tests other than conformance testing such as interoperability or acceptance

testing;

— other implementation methods.
