T3devKit testing toolkit and IPv6 test suites

Participants : Anthony Baire, César Viho, François Lerebours.

We have built a toolkit for easing executing tests written in the standardised TTCN-3 test specification language. This toolkit is made of a C++ library together with a highly customisable CoDec generator that allows fast development of external components (that are required to execute a test suite) such as CoDec (for message Coding/Decoding), System and Platform Adapters. It also provides a framework for representing and manipulating TTCN-3 events so as to ease the production of test reports. The toolkit fixes issues that are not yet covered by ETSI standards while being fully compatible with the existing standard interfaces: TRI (Test Runtime Interfaces) and TCI (Test Control Interfaces). It has been publicly released under the name T3DevKit and made available under the CeCILL-C License.

All these tools with associated test suites (for RIPng, DHCPv6 and examples for DNS) are freely available at http://www.irisa.fr/tipi .
