Introduction
This document is based on the template prepared in CEN/TC 155/WG 21, Edition 6 (see document
CEN/TC 155/WG 21 N1112).
This document details the applicable characteristics to be assessed for type testing (TT), batch release
test (BRT), process verification test (PVT), and audit test (AT), as well as the frequency and sampling for
testing.
The concept of testing and organization of those tests used for the AoC is shown, without or with
