Foreword
This ETSI Standard (ES) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Methods for Testing and Specification
(MTS).
The present document is part 7 of a multi-part deliverable. Full details of the entire series can be found in part 1 [1].
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and

Introduction
This extension package to TDL introduces additional features for the specification of extended test configurations by
reusing existing test configurations. Existing test configurations can be instantiated within an extended test
configuration. By means of test configuration operations, the test configuration instances can be modified within an
extended test configuration, without affecting the original test configuration specification that is instantiated.
The present document describes the relevant abstract syntax (meta-model) extensions as well as the corresponding
concrete syntactical notation.

Foreword
This ETSI Standard (ES) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Methods for Testing and Specification
(MTS).
The present document is part 7 of a multi-part deliverable. Full details of the entire series can be found in part 1 [1].
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.
Introduction
This extension package to TDL introduces additional features for the specification of extended test configurations by
reusing existing test configurations. Existing test configurations can be instantiated within an extended test
configuration. By means of test configuration operations, the test configuration instances can be modified within an
extended test configuration, without affecting the original test configuration specification that is instantiated.
The present document describes the relevant abstract syntax (meta-model) extensions as well as the corresponding
concrete syntactical notation.
