1 Scope
The present document provides the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP) for Transmission of IP packets
over Geonetworking as defined in TS 102 636-6-1 [1] in compliance with the relevant requirements and in accordance

The ISO standard for the methodology of conformance testing (ISO/IEC 9646-1 [2] and ISO/IEC 9646-2 [3]) as well as
the ETSI rules for conformance testing (ETS 300 406 [6]) are used as a basis for the test methodology.

5 Test Purposes (TP)
5.1 Introduction
5.1.1 TP definition conventions
The TPs are defined by the rules shown in table 2.
Table 2: TP definition rules
TP Header
TP ID The TP ID is a unique identifier. It shall be specified according to the TP naming
conventions defined in clause 5.1.2.
Test objective Short description of test purpose objective according to the requirements from the base
standard.
Reference The reference indicates the sub-clauses of the reference standard specifications in which
the conformance requirement is expressed.
PICS Selection Reference to the PICS statement involved for selection of the TP. Contains a Boolean
expression.
TP Behaviour
Initial conditions The initial conditions defines in which initial state the IUT has to be to apply the actual TP.
In the corresponding Test Case, when the execution of the initial condition does not
succeed, it leads to the assignment of an Inconclusive verdict.
Expected behaviour (TP body) Definition of the events, which are parts of the TP objective, and the IUT are expected to
perform in order to conform to the base specification. In the corresponding Test Case,
Pass or Fail verdicts can be assigned there.
Final conditions Definition of the events that the IUT is expected to perform or shall not perform, according
to the base standard and following the correct execution of the actions in the expected
behaviour above. In the corresponding Test Case, the execution of the final conditions is
evaluated for the assignment of the final verdict.
