TTCN Test Solution - and Beyond

Devoteam's TTCN Testing solution contains our comprehensive TTCN 3 Toolbox, a state-of-the-art TTCN 3 compiler and a wide range of highly automated test cases tailored to customer specific needs and complemented by a wide range of testing services. It was designed to provide our customers with innovative and leading testing best practices, such as software development, system integration, system and service testing.

Devoteam’s TTCN 3 Testing solutions are with others proven in industries such as Telecommunications, Automotive, and Utilities to test protocols, services, API’s and software modules etc.in the fields of interoperability/internetworking, robustness, performance, regression, systems and system integration.

Devoteam’s TTCN 3 Toolbox distinguishes by its open, flexible and extensible design established upon our long term experiences of more than two decades of TTCN tool development.

• Cut back of our customers testing investments through highly standardized test component interfaces
• Faster test system development to ensure shorter time to market of our clients
• Highly automated regression testing capabilities to increase clients product quality
  • by leveraging publically available TTCN-3 test suites, such as IPv6, DHCPv6, WiMax 802.16, and
  • by using approved ETSI / 3GPP / WiMax forum / AUTOSAR test suites
• Improved testing productivity - through the use of standardized TTCN-3 technology components (test language, codec, logging, test campaign management, distributed test run support)
  • by using TTCN-3 as a platform-independent technology on Windows, Linux, etc.
  • by sharing test suite development and approval across teams, organizations and companieserbesserung der Kundenzufriedenheit

• TTCN-3 has proven its suitability especially for conformance testing of radio access services, such as LTE and WiMax, network technologies, such as SIP and IPv6, and has been adopted as test technology for Electronical Control Units (ECU) by AUTOSAR.
• Devoteam's TTCN-3 Toolbox is the kernel in various multi-protocol test systems of leading test equipment suppliers for 3GPP RAN5 - mobile terminal conformance testing, according to the standards:
  • TS 34.229-3  Internet Protocol (IP) multimedia call control protocol based on Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Session Description Protocol (SDP); User Equipment (UE) conformance test suite
  • TS 36.523-3  Evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA) and Evolved Packet Core (EPC); User Equipment (UE) conformance test suites
  • TS 37.571-4  Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (UTRA) and Evolved UTRA (E-UTRA) and Evolved Packet Core (EPC); User Equipment (UE) conformance specification for UE positioning test suites
• Devoteam's TTCN 3 Toolbox as Conformity Test System for Smart Meters
  The TTC Toolbox is seamlessly integrated in Zera's Meter test systems to test the SML-based communication of the new generation of electricity meters. Development of a variety of test cases to ensure interoperability between manufactures and energy suppliers.

• TTCN-3 is currently spreading in new application fields like embedded testing. Beyond such new application fields, we have combined the benefits of TTCN-3 with modern speech and image recognition technologies for some highly sophisticated end-to-end test solutions – testing availability (24/7) and functionality truly from a consumers perspective:
  • speech announcement testing, e.g. for voice mail boxes
    using TTCN-3 together with speech recognition engines
  • testing of multi-media content, on mobile phones, IP-TV set top boxes, etc. by combining TTCN-3 with modern image recognition technologies (see SoftRobot for details).
• Even TTCN2 solutions – based on the previous edition of the TTCN language – are still available and supported by Devoteam, such as:
  • DECT conformance testing using TBR22 - EN 300 497 test suites
  • 3GPP RAN5 TS 34.123-3  User Equipment (UE) conformance specification; Part 3: Abstract test suite (ATS)
  • and any other TTCN2 test suite.
